SENATE RESOLUTION PROCLAIMING JANUARY 18TH-24TH, 2026, TO BE "CERTIFIED REGISTERED NURSE ANESTHETISTS WEEK" IN THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND

SR 2192 is a ceremonial Senate resolution designating January 18-24, 2026, as "Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists Week" in Rhode Island. It recognizes the contributions of Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) and their role in providing safe, cost-effective anesthesia care across all healthcare settings, including rural communities and military facilities. The resolution directs the Secretary of State to send a certified copy to the Rhode Island Association of Nurse Anesthetists (RIANA). As a symbolic gesture with no legal effect, it does not change laws or policies but honors CRNAs’ work, including their pandemic response.
