Overview
The Nurse Anesthesia Program from Columbia University is a 36-month, full-time, front-loaded program that includes a 21-month clinical anesthesia residency.
Education
The first year is devoted to advanced science courses, doctoral core courses, as well as basic principles of anesthesia and structured high-fidelity simulation activities. The intensive clinical residency component begins during the fifth semester with advanced didactic coursework for the nurse anesthesiology role and doctoral seminars.
During clinical residencies, increasing responsibility for anesthesiology patient care under guidance is afforded. The application of theoretical knowledge to the realities of clinical practice is a dynamic process that enhances and enriches learning as well as prepares the graduate to function effectively and competently as a professional.
The sequential design of the program permits the nurse anesthesiology resident to acquire the skills necessary to move along this continuum, practicing to the full scope of anesthesiology practice upon graduation.
