We’re thrilled to spend time today with a special guest who is not just a nurse anesthetist but also a passionate advocate for healthcare and community issues. Kellie Deeter, CRNA is currently running for a seat in the Ohio House of Representatives with a campaign focused on her extensive experience in the medical field and a commitment to public service. Join us as we hear about her journey, the vision she has for Ohio, and how her CRNA background has prepared her for politics.

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

Her background as a nurse anesthetist, wife, mother of six, and a small business owner.
She was motivated to run because a regulation in Ohio posed a barrier to practice.
Details on the seat she’s running for and her district.
What’s been the hardest part of campaigning?
The advice she would give someone who is thinking about running for office.
