Actually anesthesiology is also a discipline of nursing. At least under the law.Yes.
Because anesthesiology is a discipline of medicine, not nursing - so medical staff bylaws apply which means that all patients must have a physician, not a nurse be ultimately responsible for care.
That can mean different things at different places.
If it’s a crna only practice, the physician - most commonly the surgeon is responsible.
Agree with the rest of your post.
