Two faculty members from Barry Universitys Master of Science in Anesthesiology program recently received national recognitions from the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA).
Steve Clarke, MS, CRNA, clinical coordinator and assistant director of Barrys anesthesiology program, was named Outstanding Clinical Instructor of the Year at the associations annual meeting in Denver, CO. The award, presented to one instructor a year who exemplifies excellence in nurse anesthesia education, was one of two presented to Barry faculty members at the meeting. 
Diana Quinlan, CRNA, program lecturer in Barrys program, was also recognized with the Agatha Hodgins Award for outstanding contributions to the nurse anesthetist profession.
Both Clarke and Quinlan have been long-time contributors to both Barrys program and their profession. Clarke helped establish Barrys nurse anesthesia degree with Dr. Norman Wolford in 1993, and Quinlan has been conducting research and lecturing on her chosen topic, chemical dependency in health care providers, for over 20 years.
