Curious about what it truly means to be a Certified Anesthesiologist Assistant (CAA)? You're in the right place! From nearly two decades of experience, I share a clear and comprehensive breakdown of the CAA profession. Think of me as your older sister or best friend, guiding you step-by-step through the essentials—from what CAAs actually do to how much money we make, no topic is off limits. Whether you're an aspiring AA student or simply exploring a career in medicine, this guide equips you with the insights you need to understand the CAA profession.
In Part 3 I break down some universally misunderstood concepts pertaining to CAA practice regulations such as licensure vs. delegatory authority, medical direction vs. medical supervision, and why CAA state licensure does not automatically guarantee state practice. This is a critical episode no matter where you are in your CAA journey, and one that helped me answer some long considered questions.
