CRNAs bring technical precision and expertise to the operating room, but our most powerful impact might be how we show up for our patients during their most vulnerable moments. In this episode, Sharon and Jeremy sit down with Casi Short, a CRNA who developed a compassionate care program for women experiencing pregnancy loss.

Hear how her own fertility struggles and second-trimester losses inspired her to create a supportive program at her hospital for women facing similar grief. This ​is ​a ​story ​of ​heart ​healing ​and ​the ​quiet ​strength ​it ​takes ​to ​stand ​beside ​someone ​in ​their ​darkest ​hour, ​​and ​how ​one ​CRNA ​is ​helping ​transform ​loss ​into ​love ​through ​meaningful ​change.

Here’s some of what you’ll hear in this episode:
