AANA Position on CRNAs Teaching AA Students in the Clinical Setting
BIG NEWS!
New Mexico State University’s Nurse Anesthesiology DNP program has achieved accreditation by the Council on Accreditation for Nurse Anesthesiology Education programs (COA)! NMSU made the decision to launch this program due to the critical need for anesthesia providers in the state and region, especially in rural health centers and critical access hospitals. To serve the healthcare needs of the state, the curriculum will have a focus on rural health and health disparities in New Mexico. NMSU has been collaborating with the NMANA and other stakeholders from around the state during the program planning and accreditation process.
NMSU has launched a crowdfunding campaign to support nurse anesthesiology DNP students. Please consider contributing to this scholarship fund and support students in New Mexico’s first and only nurse anesthesia program.
To donate to this NMSU scholarship fund go to: https://www.givecampus.com/wg1it0
Spread the word about this campaign to your anesthesia and surgeon colleagues, and share on your social media!
THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!
As many of you know, we lost a very special member of our CRNA community recently. Lorrie Bennett was a dedicated CRNA, hard-working NMANA board member and an all-around beautiful human being. In her memory, we have started a scholarship fund to support future NM CRNAs with their education costs. Please click on the link below to donate.
