New Britain
School of Nurse Anesthesia
At the New Britain School
of Nurse Anesthesia we are committed
to excellence in the education of nurse anesthetists. We ensure that each graduate excels professionally through an
intensive graduate level program incorporating a comprehensive clinical
training practicum. Our academic curriculum
and
clinical experiences encompass the entire anesthetic period including
pre-anesthesia assessment, intra-operative management, post-operative care
and adjuvant anesthesia services.
This diverse array of clinical situations provides our graduates a sound
foundation for the practice of competent and safe anesthesia care.
In step with leading academic centers
and national anesthesia trends, our students participate in simulation
training as an adjunct to clinical and didactic instruction. State
of the art simulation training is provided in an operating room setting
with up-to-date equipment and the SimMan high fidelity simulator. This highly
sought after clinical experience enables our students to acquire
the technical, leadership and teamwork skills required to effectively respond
to the challenges of high acuity - low occurrence anesthesia
scenarios, such as malignant hyperthermia, shock, MI, anaphylaxis, and
difficult airway/intubation. (Learn
more about our simulation training at Hartford Hospital).
The NBSNA in conjunction with
Central Connecticut State University awards a Master of Science Degree in
Biological Sciences: Anesthesia. Graduates are entitled to take the national
certification exam for Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNA) and are
eligible for full, active membership in the American Association of Nurse
Anesthetists (AANA).
