FREE! 8 Steps to Becoming a CRNA: https://www.cspaedu.com/3m9jgffp

What should you do before CRNA? In today’s episode, Colby W., a CSBA Community Member, sits with Jenny Finnell to gather insights on the steps before nursing school for CRNA. Jenny shares that you need to get practical hands-on experience as a nurse’s aide, especially in ICU, to avoid having problems after graduation. Colby and Jenny also get to touch on extracurriculars, and as Jenny suggests, student organizations are not the only a good starting place to add to your resume but also outside the hospital. Join Colby and Jenny Finnell as they trek the path to prepare you for CRNA.
