CRNA Interview Personality & EQ Exam
Questions And Correct Answers
Why do you want to become CRNA - answer✔Since I can remember, I've always aspired to play
sports at the professional level. After multiple knee surgeries, that dream of mine came to a halt.
Since then I've found a renewed passion for science, nursing and patient care. I set a new goal to
practice at the highest level and to reach what I consider the NFL of nursing, CRNA.
I take pride in Caring for patients when they're at their sickest, but I believe God chosen me to
leverage my gifts to be able to provide in more ways than just at the bedside.
I work side by side with fantastic nurse practitioners in the icu but drawn much more to the 1-on-
1 focused care that comes with anethesia.
Every time I shadowed CRNA in the OR it just felt right. During my first shadow experience I
was able to see how the anesthetist interacted with the patient perioperatively
pre-op, performed airway assessment, induct the patients and deployed the anesthesia plan into
the operation room,
I was able to experience the intraoperative phase level of autonomy he had and how he
communicated with surgeons and nurses in the room while simultaneously monitored vital signs
and adjusted anesthesia.
Last year i attended an 8 hour long Diversity CRNA information session that fueled my fire even
more.
Anesthesia is a calling for me because it takes a special person learn & understand the intricate
sciences but also be able to hold patients hands when their cold, naked and vulnerable and tell
them "I got you"
Anesthesia allows flexibility in my life. I will have the ability to work in various settings
between university hospitals, critical access hospitals, outpatients surgery center, pain
management clinics, education and more.
