She is saying because she works in the environment you have no idea the difficulty of being a CRNA. Yes life and death but the weight of the job is difficult..
Well if she became a nurse in her early 20's she could be in her early 30's which makes sense. At 31 people were asking me if I was between the ages of 15-17 lol. The oldest I got was 22 but was way older.
Yeah used to be that way in nursing but many people are going into the field for the payout. Bedside care is different today there's a higher turnover rate and more paperwork
To SunnirnDec. Yes! New York have the hardest curriculum. She was very very determined. She did not say all of the cons. Dedicated specialties often improve ongoingly due to research and science. The next specialty one must train for again.
Thirty six to forty eight hours (Very little down time). Many times, the RNs come in to work with their food already wrapped up. Not a cushy job at all. God bless her and all like her.
She’s a full time nurse that works 3-12 hour shifts for two weeks and then on the 3rd week she works 4-12 hour shifts. That equates to full time averaging 40 hours a week. Their schedule is typically two months out. Prior to her director posting the schedule the nurses can request days off of their work week. So if approved, she could work Mon, Tues, Wed and take Thur-Sunday off and then she can take that Mon-Thursday off and work Fri-Sunday. That would be two work weeks working 3-12 hour shifts. So essentially she has an 8 day break to go on vacation. Where as most other professions you’d need to take a paid vacation. That allows her to unused vacation pay. Additionally, perhaps not a nurse with her responsibilities, but sometimes in a particular department they have days in which the nurse to patient ratio happens to be too high so the staffing person might ask if any nurse wants to be on call to have the next day off. If that happens they can used their unused vacation pay to make up for that missed day of work. In other words, they don’t work long hours. It’s all in their favor. Good on her. It’s not a criticism. But don’t let them convince you it’s long hours.
@@ane28829 I am not talking about a video you made. This person said she worked 36-48 hours a week. That’s not a lot. That’s like any profession. So my guess is she works a full time position with 13 hour shifts which equates to 3-12 hour shifts for two weeks and a week of 4-12 shifts. That equates to a full time position averaging a 40 hour work week. She asked her the cons and she said long hours and she said 36-48 hours a week. Not sure how to make it any clearer for you. Mic drop.
@@ane28829 okay. I guess most of working class sees 48 hours as a regular week. I suppose for blue collar workers they shouldn’t be equally as exhausted as you. Good on you’re salary though. You earned it and deserve it. It wasn’t easy. Don’t burn out.
Amen! May God bless and strengthen her and her hands and for every set of hands and heart in the frontlines of the medical fields and the precious patients for His perfect plans and purposes. Glory be to God and May He continue to work in these precious lives to the ends of the earth in Jesus name!
Wow, you NEVER hear about a job with good money AND work/life balance. This woman has it made. Good for her! And yes I do realize she deals in life or death but tbh that’s no skin off of some people’s backs. Death is part of life and she’s part of making it as painless as possible. Angel girl! 💞💞

@@melaninchocolate6552 as a young black male I made an attempt to try to get into RN program but I was turned around because they told me I was too young. Came to find out the RN director who was a black woman just did not want to allow men into the program.

Yasssss Sheena!!!! You deserve every bit of it! You’re an excellent provider of anesthesia. Your years of working in the largest trauma hospitals as a highly skilled critical nurse has certainly paid off.

It's a huge responsibility on her shoulders, just a few drops more of anesthesia than required and the patient is brain dead. Salute to all these hard working medical professionals
Gurl I applaud you for your discipline.. I’m a nurse and the average person doesn’t understand how delicate and detailed it is anesthesia related.. it’s rewarding work, but it’s definitely not for anyone who’s just looking for the financial gain.. Keep up your great endeavors 👍🏽
Thank you for addressing this profession. You put in the hrs and education to do what you do. Hats off to you. Stay blessed and never take anything for granted.
Get it Sis!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I went back to school during COVID for nursing and it was the absolute BEST decision I ever made!! Especially considering it was FREE!!!! 😁😆😝
My daughter also went to nursing school and got her degree/license during Covid, and it was free. Plus she got to do all her courses online. That was the best time to go back to school! The government paid all her tuition payments, didn’t have to go to the actual school, and did it online.
The hardest part is becoming a Registered Nurse, our programs are the toughest in the university's. If I wasn't so old, I'd consider it myself. Nurse's Rock 💥
@@sunnirnDEC no way, the hardest part is absolutely CRNA school. three years where you can’t work because of how intensive the curriculum is, 60-100 hour clinical a week and you’re still expected to study for classes. if the hardest part was becoming an RN, everybody would be a CRNA
@@sunnirnDEC are you kidding me!! RN is cake walk compared to CRNA. That is such a hard program to come out of. My cousin did it and she was pulling her hair out and it was three years of stress and tears and she is such a smart girl and even then it was so hard
@@israa.6375 No....not trying to take away from CRNA, its definitely an arduous program, I was saying, one has to become a RN (Nurse) first. That's a hard program itself. Anesthesiology...the word sounds hard 😆 (is in depth pharmacology, pathophysiology and math) all some VERY deep subjects. I'm proud to see more ppl of color are going into this field. Nothing but MAD respect for those that do 💖💕
I work 20-30 hours a week. Make 75k a year it's more than enough for where I live. Money means nothing if you're constantly working. Personal time and happiness mean a lot more to me. Money is just a necessity , as long as you have enough
Lol good for you viva but don’t push your opinions and beliefs on everyone else. What you like is not what everyone else likes…sounds like your just jealous
It is a lot if you’re working those hours in a few days. That is how most hospitals schedule their RNs/CRNAs (certified nurse anesthetist). 12-16 hour days and they only get a 30 min lunch break. Plus, CRNAs may have a whole floor during a shift and can be overwhelmed quickly with patients who need critical care. Lastly, there is a shortage of CRNAs because the critical care patient population has increased due to obesity and other diseases becoming prevalent. I think they are underpaid. Fun fact: During the pandemic, they were starting travel CRNAs at 380K, and depending on the need, you could negotiate to start at 460K - 500K (per contract weeks, not yearly). They were making more than some surgeons. Hospitals and clinics were begging them to come for in some states, they can work independently instead of under an anesthesiologist. Essentially, for two years they were cleaning up!
As an RN, I can tell you going on to nurse anesthetist level of education and responsibilty is not for the faint of heart. Hats off to her for sticking with it. Most nurses never see that kind of money.👍🤗🖖🙆♀️🙅♀️
That’s Lowkey NOT a lot of hours!!! That’s a regular work week, and you’re making $280k for it. I’m so shocked she thinks that’s a lot of hours 🤔 Editing this comment to say: after she listed the hours as a “pro” she then proceeded to answer the question “how many hours a week do you work?” And she said A LOT! Between 36-48. So my comment is pertaining to the fact that people who make less than or equal to or more than her, typically work more hours than her! For example, your average supervisor or manager works 50 hours a week. Teachers work 40 hours according to the time their day starts in class, but they have to get there early, leave late, and do a lot of work at home. Those hours count. But she considers 36-48 “A LOT”..which is crazy to me because I know many people who work almost 60 hours a week and make less than her.
It’s mentally demanding. CRNAs have to critically think on their toes at al times to keep patients’ vital signs at safe levels, pain free and unconscious so they don’t wake up during surgery.
@@6theggdog480 You may be referring the the maintenance phase of anesthesia. I must admit that during that phase is the most “chill” phase and can allow us to rest and maintain the pt during surgery. However, it’s not like you can do paperwork or invest in stocks without ever bothering to look up at the pt’s vitals. Anesthesia requires the professional to be on their toes at all times to ensure patient safety. You may be referring to quick and less complex surgical cases but many times, surgeries are unpredictable. Even these volatile anesthetics can do various things to our organ systems which is why we must constantly maintain proper positioning, reduce barotrauma, monitor ETCO2 levels, maintain tissue perfusion, and reduce gas tensions to name a few our our job responsibilities.
I can tell this women has a lot of confidence and can hold responsibility very well. She fits in very well in the CRNA community. She didn’t even skip a beat to get there.
Good for her. Her studies has paid and will continue to pay off. There are many people that shred the idea of getting degrees and education. But higher education traditionally allows many to advance financially more than other means. Can you imagine if she made TH-cam videos regarding tutoring or just how to navigate moving through that industry.
@@palladium607 that’s true. All those factors play a part also Merit. Merit % percentage is usually anywhere from 2% to 6%. Given at the time of your yearly evaluation.
Ex OR RN here and I have to say she’s being demure here. She rocks and all CRNAs rock!!! They are the freaking best. They have skills and the ability to save lives!!! Go her!!! ❤❤❤❤
I wonder how many anesthesiologists are working in a hospital at one time. They have like a serious intense job, I hope they get looked at regularly for psych evaluations
I know salespeople in finance who make 300-400k. She makes life and death decisions for 12-16hrs per shift for 280k and ppl are saying it's too much. You do not want someone who works with Anesthesia to be underpaid.
There are men who grind physically depleting every calorie in their body at a job that pays not even half that who work 80+ hours a week. Most people who make that kind money work double what she works, and the majority of people still don’t even make that much.
DO NOT let this woman's job description fool you. She's a "nurse", but doing a doctor's job. I had one of these for my last epidural and I didn't even know they existed. They literally do an anesthesiologist's job for less because they're just a "nurse", yet they do the exact same work a doctor does. She has all the responsibilities too.
You go girl! What an accomplishment! Get that money 💰 and little girls everywhere this is the kind of life career you want to have when you grow up! Successful!👍
She finally found a nurse anesthetist in the wild 😉. Aspiring nurses, if you're interested in CRNA, keep that GPA at 4.0. it's very competitive. The more experience in ICU, the better.
I have a friend that does this. What she isn’t revealing is how absolutely competitive the program is for RN’s in anesthetist school. If made it through she’s a rockstar ❤🎉
Speaking from someone who's had 15 surgeries, I've met many Nurse Anesthetists. It is a very difficult, responsible job but they are excellent in what they do for sure.
Good for her. Anaesthesia is very challenging - once I woke up from surgery and couldn't breathe (and struggled to communicate that, the nurses thought I was just in pain). I blacked out and woke up later thankfully. Apparently, I wasn't given enough antidote for the anaesthesia. So although I woke up, my body/lungs still wasn't functioning.
I am a CRNA in another country I'm telling you it's definitely one of the most challenging and stressful careers anyone can choose it's a lot of responsibilities especially with kids which are my nightmares due to typically being more vulnerable to hypoxia ... The best part is you definitely know a lot of medicine even more than a GP or a dentist in terms of life saving knowledge and even diagnosis...school is really hard even harder than med school rotations are too much and on top of that you have a lot of on call nights
yeah thats ridiculous... even people who go to college for computer science dont make that much within their first 2 years even at google or microsoft. either this is a fake video or she is working at a very good establishment.
Don’t waste your time becoming an anesthesiologist, unless you’re totally dead set on living in a state where they control everything. Anesthesiologists are overrated. In the military, CRNAs are 100% independent. They’re usually the ones that deploy. They generally are way more experienced than an Anesthesiologist.
Once I heard “I love it, best decision ever” she inspired me to pursue it and I applied last year and got in this year 🙌🏽

Lastly, there is a shortage of CRNAs because the critical care patient population has increased due to obesity and other diseases becoming prevalent. I think they are underpaid. Fun fact: During the pandemic, they were starting travel CRNAs at 380K, and depending on the need, you could negotiate to start at 460K - 500K (per contract weeks, not yearly). They were making more than some surgeons. Hospitals and clinics were begging them to come for in some states, they can work independently instead of under an anesthesiologist. Essentially, for two years they were cleaning up!
Exactly!
i hope they weren't the ones making dancing tik tok videos
@@muzic4lyfe2005 Nope! The ones doing the dances are the entitled, pasty ones who get away with everything. Got the answer you're looking for?
@@kayade5305 "entitled pasty ones" .....what exactly do you mean by that??
@@kayade5305 the ones doing tiktoks are usually the ones that don't have 8+ years of higher education followed by several more years of training.
As an RN, I can tell you going on to nurse anesthetist level of education and responsibilty is not for the faint of heart. Hats off to her for sticking with it. Most nurses never see that kind of money.👍🤗🖖🙆♀️🙅♀️
She is the most calmest New Yorker i have ever seen lol she is dope though get itttttt Queen
Its a lot of responsibility. CRNA is not for faint hearts. Good for her!!!! ❤❤
That’s Lowkey NOT a lot of hours!!! That’s a regular work week, and you’re making $280k for it. I’m so shocked she thinks that’s a lot of hours 🤔
Editing this comment to say: after she listed the hours as a “pro” she then proceeded to answer the question “how many hours a week do you work?” And she said A LOT! Between 36-48. So my comment is pertaining to the fact that people who make less than or equal to or more than her, typically work more hours than her! For example, your average supervisor or manager works 50 hours a week. Teachers work 40 hours according to the time their day starts in class, but they have to get there early, leave late, and do a lot of work at home. Those hours count. But she considers 36-48 “A LOT”..which is crazy to me because I know many people who work almost 60 hours a week and make less than her.
It’s mentally demanding. CRNAs have to critically think on their toes at al times to keep patients’ vital signs at safe levels, pain free and unconscious so they don’t wake up during surgery.
@@WhenNightHits yeah, what they said! ... And the Candy isn't going to Crush itself either.
@@6theggdog480 You may be referring the the maintenance phase of anesthesia. I must admit that during that phase is the most “chill” phase and can allow us to rest and maintain the pt during surgery. However, it’s not like you can do paperwork or invest in stocks without ever bothering to look up at the pt’s vitals. Anesthesia requires the professional to be on their toes at all times to ensure patient safety. You may be referring to quick and less complex surgical cases but many times, surgeries are unpredictable. Even these volatile anesthetics can do various things to our organ systems which is why we must constantly maintain proper positioning, reduce barotrauma, monitor ETCO2 levels, maintain tissue perfusion, and reduce gas tensions to name a few our our job responsibilities.
@@WhenNightHitsthey don’t get it!
@@WhenNightHits Sounds like a job for a physician, not a nurse
My daughter us a CRNA. I am so proud of her. It's an enormous responsibility and she's very passionate about her job. She rocks!
yes I love her! she is underrated! I am on the CRNA journey. It is nerve-racking!
You go, girl!!! I love ❤️ her humble demeanor.
I can tell this women has a lot of confidence and can hold responsibility very well. She fits in very well in the CRNA community. She didn’t even skip a beat to get there.
Congratulations, young lady. You're living the dream!
Good to see a *BLACK woman* making $280k per year in a STEM field! 🙌🏾 Bravo 👏🏾 from another lady in STEM! 🫶🏾
Congratulations to you both!❤🎉I’m an educator and I’m pushing my middle school students to STEM!😊
Racist
@Robert De Palma So many words in the English dictionary and you chose this one... 🤦🏾♀️ ...and so ill-informed about STEM fields too. 🤦🏾♀️
@Kaufman Andy nah your mind is oppressed...be mad hater
You'll feel real good when that affirmative action hire is your anesthesiologist 😂
She looks so young to have so much work experience. Great job! Much respect.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 get it sis!
Rewarding work! Awesome, baby! ♥️
Good for her.
Her studies has paid and will continue to pay off. There are many people that shred the idea of getting degrees and education. But higher education traditionally allows many to advance financially more than other means. Can you imagine if she made TH-cam videos regarding tutoring or just how to navigate moving through that industry.
Proud of this young lady!
Nothing compares to a nurse’s direct deposit…

How much they get a week or every two weeks
@riz1738 it depends on location, years of experience, and area that you work in like surgery vs icu or er, etc
@@palladium607 that’s true. All those factors play a part also Merit. Merit % percentage is usually anywhere from 2% to 6%. Given at the time of your yearly evaluation.
@@palladium607 To be honest lot of nurses make more than Drs. And residents.
Ex OR RN here and I have to say she’s being demure here. She rocks and all CRNAs rock!!! They are the freaking best. They have skills and the ability to save lives!!! Go her!!! ❤❤❤❤
I wonder how many anesthesiologists are working in a hospital at one time. They have like a serious intense job, I hope they get looked at regularly for psych evaluations
Please go into Pain Management! We need passionate young ppl to continue caring compassionately and humanely for ppl who are suffering! ❤
I know salespeople in finance who make 300-400k. She makes life and death decisions for 12-16hrs per shift for 280k and ppl are saying it's too much. You do not want someone who works with Anesthesia to be underpaid.
So true.
I’m so proud of her beautiful black queen leaving her dreams❤️❤️❤️💯
And here I am telling myself I'm not doing any mandatory OT over 50hrs.
I aint mad at her. Some of us just have different struggles.
Go head, girl!
Nurses Deserve every 💰 of it! Bless all of the Nurses of the entire world, and the work they Do! “TheChef”
36-48 hrs a week is crazy low hours for that much money.
Do you know what she does? No one wants an overworked anesthesiologist.
@@queenebony She's not an anesthesiologist or doctor. She's a CRNA. There's a difference but you're right on the workload.
It’s 12 hour shifts 3 to 4 days a week
She's not getting paid for the hours but the skill/training/expertise. But yeah her salary is super high. Good for her 😌
There are men who grind physically depleting every calorie in their body at a job that pays not even half that who work 80+ hours a week. Most people who make that kind money work double what she works, and the majority of people still don’t even make that much.
DO NOT let this woman's job description fool you. She's a "nurse", but doing a doctor's job. I had one of these for my last epidural and I didn't even know they existed. They literally do an anesthesiologist's job for less because they're just a "nurse", yet they do the exact same work a doctor does. She has all the responsibilities too.
Such a beautiful young woman !!!!!😇🙏🏽👍🤗
It's easier when you love what you do. Thanks for your conttibution!
That's is so amazing...GOD BLESS YOU 🙌🏾 🙏🏻 ✨️
You go girl! What an accomplishment! Get that money 💰 and little girls everywhere this is the kind of life career you want to have when you grow up! Successful!👍
She finally found a nurse anesthetist in the wild 😉. Aspiring nurses, if you're interested in CRNA, keep that GPA at 4.0. it's very competitive. The more experience in ICU, the better.
@triiii1303 looks like someone went to school in Florida
@triiii1303you got in????
@@gpsawyer😂😂😂😂
@triiii1303 ummm I have no interest in anesthesia but thanks! 🤦🏾♀️🤣🤣🤣
Lol they are rare. Definitely a great field.
Being a is nurse rewarding helping the sick
Wish I could have continued I couldn't because of breast cancer we need more nurses
Oh dear
Yasssss, Sis! Love to see it!
I have a friend that does this. What she isn’t revealing is how absolutely competitive the program is for RN’s in anesthetist school. If made it through she’s a rockstar ❤🎉
i'm happy for her
She put in the work 👏 to my fellow nurse!
So humble
Intelligent young woman. Praying gor her lefe too improve.
That's awesome!
Congrats my Queen u got to be a very intelligent person very proud of your great work qualities
Impressive! She's so chill too. I'm a teacher. Oh and broke lol
Speaking from someone who's had 15 surgeries, I've met many Nurse Anesthetists. It is a very difficult, responsible job but they are excellent in what they do for sure.
I just recently had surgery. The nurses were all so wonderful. They helped to calm me down in the OR when I became nervous. I
Good for her. Anaesthesia is very challenging - once I woke up from surgery and couldn't breathe (and struggled to communicate that, the nurses thought I was just in pain). I blacked out and woke up later thankfully. Apparently, I wasn't given enough antidote for the anaesthesia. So although I woke up, my body/lungs still wasn't functioning.
Hustlers come in all forms! Go get that shit and lead the way for others
the connotation of hustler is making a quick buck on the side
I am a CRNA in another country I'm telling you it's definitely one of the most challenging and stressful careers anyone can choose it's a lot of responsibilities especially with kids which are my nightmares due to typically being more vulnerable to hypoxia ... The best part is you definitely know a lot of medicine even more than a GP or a dentist in terms of life saving knowledge and even diagnosis...school is really hard even harder than med school rotations are too much and on top of that you have a lot of on call nights
280k is actually insane!
yeah thats ridiculous... even people who go to college for computer science dont make that much within their first 2 years even at google or microsoft. either this is a fake video or she is working at a very good establishment.
@@mccg4337 because of demand LOL.

@I feel like Pablo trust me. People get paid up to hundreds of dollars per hour just to do their jobs.
Kudo's to this young lady showing some of us that hard work equals suggest !
Don’t waste your time becoming an anesthesiologist, unless you’re totally dead set on living in a state where they control everything. Anesthesiologists are overrated.
In the military, CRNAs are 100% independent. They’re usually the ones that deploy. They generally are way more experienced than an Anesthesiologist.
