Chief CRNA: How to balance your life

Life has many demands at home and at work.  As CRNAs, we are expected to provide first time value to patients with each encounter and we are expected to be available 24/7.  As Chief CRNAs, we add the responsibility of department management to the clinical responsibilities.  After a long day at the Hospital, we often go home to a long list of “must do” items leaving little time for rest and relaxation.  Over time it takes a toll.  As professionals, we must balance our lives if we are to avoid burn out.

In a blog posted on Rock the  post, the author presents 7 key tips for bringing your life back into balance.  The author concludes, “If you don’t have a sense of harmony between your personal and professional life, things can take a toll on you mentally and physically.”  Taking simple approaches, like those listed in the blog, can help you get your life back in balance so that you can be productive at work and have fun with your family and friends.
