Any counsel on entering CRNA academy?

I plan on going to grad school for CRNA. Have some proposal on how to get through grad university? Anyone out there who have successfully completed the program is welcome to answer. I'm an anesthesiologist. In instruct to become a CRNA, you must first be a registered nurse. You also need a year of experience as a critical safekeeping nurse (it can be cardiac ICU, recovery room nurse, or any other ICU, I think) Only after will you be accepted into a CRNA program.
Before you embark on that way, I recommend you spend some time working in an OR. It's not an environment that everyone feel comfortable in.
CRNA academy is not so much grad school as it is on-the-job training near lectures on the side. If you are an excellent critical care nurse who can respond sensibly to crisis, then you will probably engineer an excellent CRNA.
Good luck!
hi
my bf is in CRNA institution, and im in grad university but for an NP. i could tell u in the order of crna that its very intense programme. leaves no time for work or much else. taking loans probably will be usefull depending on the expense of ur school. if u contemplate of working, think attentively, think of a long residence goal and what benefits u will receive later on instead of working immediately and taking time away from needed rest of study. first year he didnt have clinicals until summer. 2nd year its both. its long hours and rock-hard exams as he describes that need greatly of preparation. otherwise it goes by high-speed and easy, manufacture sure the financial part is taken strictness of. i hope u have humanitarian people around u that deduce what u r going to go tru subsequent few years.
good luck!
