Equine Anesthesia

Hello all, I am a current nursing student in the US and have some curiosities about veterinary anesthesia. My current career plan is to become a CRNA, but I also am a horse person and have always been interested in the veterinary side of things.

Other than obvious things like prerequisites for vet school, what should I know about the path to equine anesthesia? Is it realistic to hope to focus on equine or large animal anesthesia?

What is the typical work life/salary situation?

For context, I chose CRNA because it combines my love for medicine with the ability to have a great work life balance and income to spend plenty of time on my horse farm with family. But I can’t help but wonder if i’d be a little more satisfied doing the veterinary anesthesia thing.

I’d love to hear from anyone who has answers!

Thanks!

Hello everyone. I live on the Plaza and yesterday took a walk around with my boyfriend. We found ourselves at the Bloch Cancer Survivors Park, and I found the entire thing very touching. However, it is in a sad state. Trash everywhere, signs of people living there and using it as a bathroom, old fake Christmas trees inside the structure, and generally overgrown but with empty planters.

I called Parks & Rec with no answer. I would be happy to go do the work myself, I just would need help to provide plants for the planters because I know that gets expensive.

I’m a CNA in training and also going to school for nursing, and have plenty of people in my life who have/had cancer, and I hate to see this place in a ruin.

How do I make this better? Any advice welcome. Thank you
