    • Courses

Without highly qualified nurse anesthesia educators and administrators, the health care system will be threatened by an inadequate supply of certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs). A  Task Force of the American Association of Nurse Anesthesiologists analyzed reasons for high faculty turnover and developed 2 recommendations to support nurse anesthesia faculty and administrators: create a robust faculty development program and a repository of resources for educators. In this podcast, Drs. Cormac O'Sullivan and Laura Bonanno describe the findings of their survey and the resource repository developed by the Task Force. The content of the repository and types of resources in it are described in the accompanying article, which is open access – share the article widely. Although this project was geared to CRNA faculty, it is applicable to any school of nursing committed to preparing new educators.
