[AVANA @AVANAcrna]

We recognize and appreciate all VA CRNAs for the exceptional high-quality care they provide to Veterans each and every day!

@aanacrna @USHVHA @DeptVetAffairs @POTUS @VP @DenisMcDonough

[AANA @aanacrna]

Only with all providers working to the top of their education and training can we reduce wait times and increase access to care for veterans.

[AANA @aanacrna]

VA national standards would allow for greater flexibility. AANA supports having #CRNAs and our physician anesthesiologist colleagues providing direct care to patients.

[AANA @aanacrna]

Hospitals and other facilities should be able to choose the delivery model that best meets their needs. Currently, many hospitals outside the VA are provided greater flexibility than those in the VA.

[AANA @aanacrna]

As the @HouseVetAffairs Health Subcommittee prepares for tomorrow's hearing on the importance of National Standards of Practice within @VeteransHealth we want to reiterate that Veterans deserve access to high quality care

Proud to sponsor legislation to formally recognize CRNA’s in New York. This bill will provide better healthcare access in rural and under-staffed parts of the state. It’s time for New York to join the 49 other states that already do this! cc: @NYSANA_ https://t.co/FHNI51cUM8

@AVANAcrna’s own Rishelle Zhou acknowledged by @MGPforCongress for her life-saving skills during an airline flight…

[TNAG @TNAG_CRNA]

Thank you to @MGPforCongress for acknowledging and recognizing the critical care and frontline life-saving skills of the best in the Nurse Anesthesiology profession and thank you to @WashingtonCRNAs own Rishelle Zhou for representing Washington CRNAs so well!

@RepUnderwood Exactly! Our training may be of a different path. But different does not equate to inferior.

[Julie Staczek Marx @julieSMarx]

@RepUnderwood We stand behind you here in Michigan Rep. Underwood 👍🏻 Economics and evidence support this out dated CMS supervision !!!

[Rep. Lauren Underwood @RepUnderwood]

That’s why I’m calling on @DeptVetAffairs to permanently allow CRNAs to practice to the full extent of their education and training. The data show that it can help lower costs and address workforce shortages – all while maintaining the same quality of care. (3/4)

[Rep. Lauren Underwood @RepUnderwood]

CRNAs are certified and trained professional nurses who administer more than 50 million anesthetics to patients every year. For the sake of their care, we have to cut the red tape. (2/4)

[AVANA @AVANAcrna]

Thank you @RepUnderwood for advocating for our Veterans!

[Rep. Lauren Underwood @RepUnderwood]

As a nurse who has spent her career working to fix broken health care systems, I know a good solution to a problem when I see one: (1/4)
