Hello everyone ???? My name is Juliana. I am really thankful to have found this platform! I think it will keep me in check and give me all the right tools to prepare to apply for CRNA school. I have been a nurse for 3.5 years, most of which I resided in the ICU. I have two and a half years of ICU experience and I have recently started working in PACU which I really think has solidified my decision to go back to school. While working in PACU I have met so many CRNAs and worked with many different anesthesia providers all of whom I’ve learned so much from. I do plan to go back into ICU with a goal of finding a CVICU position. I plan to attend the AANA Annual Congress this summer and hopefully make many meaningful connections! I have really only researched a couple of the schools in my area but I plan to research more with the guidance of this site. I am excited to get started!
