CRNA's at Foxborough typically work 10 hour weekday shifts with efficient case flow, experienced OR staff, and strong team support.
Brigham and Women’s Hospital is seeking a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) to join the anesthesia team at the Foxborough Surgery Center, a high-functioning ambulatory surgery center just south of Boston.
This position offers the opportunity to practice anesthesia in a well-run outpatient surgical environment while maintaining an exceptional work–life balance. The role features a predictable weekday schedule with no call, no nights, no weekends, and no holidays, making it an attractive alternative to traditional hospital-based anesthesia practice with convenient on-site free parking.
The center includes four operating rooms with fast turnovers and a focused ambulatory case mix. The majority of cases are orthopedic procedures, with additional urology, plastics, and straightforward general surgery. CRNA's practice within the anesthesia care team model, working alongside a collaborative group of anesthesiologists, surgeons, nurses, and surgical technologists.
A Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) is responsible for the pre-operative, intra-operative, and immediate post-operative care of the patient requiring anesthesia for surgical, medical, therapeutic, or diagnostic procedures. This care includes, but is not limited to, pre-operative assessments, anesthetic care plans, assembly and care of specialized equipment; application, insertion and interpretation of data from anesthetic monitors; airway management; delivery of general, regional anesthesia, and monitored anesthetic care; induction, maintenance, and emergence of the patient; care of the patient in the immediate post-operative setting; and post-operative assessments in collaboration with a physician member of the Department of Anesthesiology.
CRNAs also fulfill a teaching function for the Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists that rotate to the BWH from Northeastern University and Boston College for their clinical experience. Clinical research may be available as an adjunct for the CRNA who is interested in that area of practice, depending on protocols available, but it is not a department requirement, nor is it usually sponsored by the anesthesia department. All CRNAs must comply with federal, state, hospital, and departmental guidelines as they pertain to the delivery of anesthesia care at the Brigham and Women's Hospital.
