Description

In this episode of Lights Out, host Liz Carter sits down with Sarah Whitfield, CAA, and Jennifer Donoso, CAA, to explore the fast-changing world of anesthesiologist assistants. They dive into how social media has boosted awareness—and competition—within the profession, the rigorous academic and clinical preparation required, and the growing pool of applicants. Sarah and Jennifer also emphasize the vital role seasoned CAAs play in teaching and upholding high standards as the field expands. Aspiring CAAs will find practical advice on standing out in the admissions process and preparing for the demands of CAA programs.
