Dirty John

Watching this series on netflix. Pretty good so far. The show clearly has pro-crna consultants etc.

Eric Bana’s character: ...So let me get this straight. So do you get different anesthesia training?
Nurse at bar: No, no, it’s the same. But when a nurse anesthetist administers anesthesia, it’s nursing. So it had to be overseen by a doctor. But when an anesthesiologist does it, it’s called medicine so it doesn’t have to be overseen.
Bana: Ok wait, so you do the same job as an anesthesiologist, but with a chaperone, for half the money.
Nurse: Well, half the money is still great money. And no one really chaperones me anymore.
Bana: But doesn’t that make you really mad? I mean, that would make me mad. I’m sorry, but I’m mad for you.

What a weirdly (albeit inaccurate) specific dialogue to be in a script- clearly someone spurned and traumatized on the writing staff with a bone to pick. Geez, we’re even losing on the hollywood front...

I actually thought the show was really well written but don’t want to give away any spoilers with specifics. I don’t think they are taking a stance on either side. That quote is a character development interpretation of the job description from the point of view of a complete sociopath.

As I said, the show is good, and yes, there is some necessary character development etc, but that particular exchange was a non sequitur.

I'm sure AANA greedy little fingers played a part in this.

Advanced nursing propaganda: either they are stupid or they think the public is.

But the public is stupid. Very much so.

Yea I’m sure the AANA developed an entire show based on real life about a sociopath CRNA where the plot is that he steals drugs and pretends to be a doctor and him pretending to be a doctor creeps everyone out...why would that benefit them at all. I don’t think anyone gives a f about the politics between anesthesiologists or crnas.

Would bet this is more trolling than political activism.
