This is a commemorative resolution (not a law), designating January 18-24, 2026, as "Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists Week" in Rhode Island. It honors CRNAs for their 150+ years of providing anesthesia care, particularly in rural areas and military settings, and recognizes their role during the pandemic. The resolution formally declares this week of recognition and directs the Secretary of State to send a certified copy to the Rhode Island Association of Nurse Anesthetists (RIANA). It does not create new policies or affect any specific group through legislative action.
