Welcome to TANA's 84th Annual Meeting
October 15-17, 2021
With the pandemic at our doorstep, Tennessee CRNAs are answering the call. Through perseverance, professionalism, and a never-ending commitment to patients, CRNAs continued to care, even in the most challenging of circumstances. For our annual meeting, we celebrate this sense of unity by meeting in-person. 2021's Convention reflects what CRNAs are to the communities we serve.
We are Innovators. We are Advocates. We are Strong. We are TANA.
