PEER ASSISTANCE

KANA’s peer assistance committee was formed to provide information and resources to CRNAs and SRNAs throughout the state regarding chemical dependency issues. The resources listed below provide information that can be used by not only the CRNAs or SRNAs themselves, but also co-workers, family members and others concerned about the well being of a loved one.
