Should Canada have nurse anesthetists?

Description:

Josh Booth has a pitch for Canada: Bring in nurse anesthetists to help deal with Canada’s shortage of anesthesiologists, the doctors who manage sedation before and during surgery. Booth, a Canadian certified registered nurse anesthetist working in the U.S., says health professionals like him can help handle the demand for anesthesia. B.C. has tried twice to bring in the nursing role but it has yet to happen. Dr. Giuseppe Fuda, president of the Canadian Anesthesiologists’ Society, says there are concerns about bringing in nurse anesthetists to our healthcare system.
