CAA
The MetroHealth System (MHS) is devoted to advancing the quality of care we provide to our patients. MHS utilizes an Anesthesia Care Team (ACT) model to unite CAAs with Staff Anesthesiologists, SAAs, Residents, CRNAs and SRNAs.
CAAs exemplify excellence in all facets of anesthesia practice, including case management, education, and clinical research. Collaborating with an anesthesiologist, they are dedicated to delivering exceptional anesthesia for a wide range of surgical procedures. CAAs must excel in technical, cognitive and interpersonal skills to drive progress toward a healthier community through dedicated service, education, innovation and collaborative teamwork.
Aligned with our commitment to hope, health and humanity, our CAAs contribute to an environment where compassionate care and innovative practices converge to improve patient outcomes and enrich the lives of those we serve.
