Importance Of Being A Nurse Anesthetist

Having that rush of feeling flowing through you as you see what is happening to a person and you are the only one keeping them stable for the procedure to continue. Having to watch someone’s vitals as they have the potential to fluctuate and change causing you to have to react with the correct stimuli is riveting. Being a Nurse Anesthetist has always been a dream of mine, and to be able to watch a person and help the make it through a surgery is exciting. I have always known I wanted to help people and Nursing allows me to help people like I have always wanted. Getting through nursing school I know will be tough especially with my past track record of how I did in high school, but I plan to change that here in my years to come in college. I

Anesthesiology is a hard practice to be in because there is so much that you need to know if you want to be able to help someone instead of hurt them. Going through schooling for a degree like this is extremely hard because they want you to go in knowing so much so you don’t end up unintentionally hurting someone.

I understand this from having job shadowed a Nurse Anesthetist and that was the situation he was in because she didn’t react to the muscle relaxer as strongly as he would have hoped; so he had to make an adjustment before her leg started to twitch and mess up what the doctors were doing to her ankle. Having all this knowledge comes from having time and experience to know what to do during circumstances such as this. From the experience I had during my job shadow I learned a lot about nursing and about how hard it will be to force myself to keep up and keep on track with my schoolwork. He taught me that it will take more dedication than anything you will ever do in your life, because it is a very nerve racking job because someone life is literally in your hands. If you mess us just the slightest the patient could die because you gave them a drug that they were allergic to and caused their heart to
