anesthesist nurse?

mariecxx · 2013-05-12 10:52:17

I am currently in my leaving certificate year and thinking of changing my cao to put general nursing first. I am interested in becoming an anesthesist nurse after this course. Can anyone enlighten me how difficult it is to get onto a programme? where can i study etc? any information at all would be great. Thanks.

Do you mean an anaesthetic nurse? There are no nurse anaesthetists to the best of my knowledge in Ireland. Unlike in the US, Canada and the UK where they have non-physician anaesthetists of various sorts.
I am not a nurse but I understand the career path would be to become an operating room nurse and then choose anaesthesia.

Hope this helps
