Go Alyson Mesisca!!!

Happy Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNA) Week!

We’re proud to recognize CRNAs for their expertise, dedication, and compassionate care—helping patients feel safe and supported when it matters most.

Hear more from Alyson Greene, CRNA, about what drew her to this role and why she loves working with pediatric patients at the Children’s Center:

“I was drawn to this job while working as a nurse in the ICU. I had never interacted with anesthesia providers until working in the unit, and I loved the idea of furthering my education with the focus being on pharmacology and critical care while also getting to maintain the one-on-one 'hands on' care that I loved about being an ICU nurse.

I would go on to learn that working in pediatrics allowed me to continue practicing in the caregiver role that I so loved about being a nurse as well, which was an added bonus! I have been doing this for 10 years and have loved working in pediatrics the entire time, because I love the balance it strikes in that way.

All of these things make up what I love about my job; I get to take care of all kinds of kids for all kinds of procedures and provide comfort to them and their families on their hardest days. And having awesome coworkers is the cherry on top!”
