We've Worn the Same Scrubs You Have.
Most recruiting firms treat CRNAs as numbers on a spreadsheet. We built AVEA because we were tired of being placed wrong — by people who'd never drawn up a propofol drip or managed a difficult airway.
As active CRNAs ourselves, we know exactly what makes a placement work: the right clinical environment, the right team dynamics, and the right contract terms. We won't waste your time — or your client's.
CRNAs & Facilities.
One Team. One Standard.
Your Career, Your Terms.
Whether you're chasing flexibility with locum work or ready to plant roots in a permanent role, we match you based on what you actually value — not just what's convenient to fill. We handle the paperwork, the negotiations, and the logistics so you can focus on doing what you trained for.

Not Just a Warm Body.
ASCs, rural hospitals, anesthesia groups, and health systems across the U.S. trust AVEA to send candidates who are clinically excellent and culturally aligned. Our CRNA recruiters screen differently — because they know exactly what "qualified" really looks like on the floor.

What Facility Leaders Are Saying.
They simplified the process and provided great candidates very quickly — fitting not just from a skill aspect, but also culturally. Working with a team that understands the work, because they are active CRNAs, made the difference.
Thank you to Kristin, who has been overwhelmingly responsive day and night. AVEA's dedication and thoughtful approach has made a real difference. I would highly recommend AVEA CRNA.
I've been working with other recruiters for a long time and have never had such a promising candidate so quickly. I am very impressed with how fast they came up with a potential new team member.
What CRNAs Are Saying.
Working with AVEA CRNA has been enjoyable and seamless! The contract terms are transparent, communication is timely. Credentialing is quick and they take care of everything for you. From your initial contact to your first shift to payroll — no stress, just a clear process from beginning to end. They go over and beyond your expectations!
AVEA has been great! It has been a very smooth experience working with them. It is nice that they are CRNA owned and have your best interest at heart. I feel like they are always on your side. Kristin has been super approachable the entire process. I would gladly work another assignment with AVEA!
Working with AVEA has been a seamless experience! Kristin, Dan, and their team are prompt to respond, support, and provide assistance in any way possible. Because Kristin and Dan are both CRNAs themselves, they understand the locum process and the work we do. AVEA has been the best locum company I've ever worked for!
Founded Out of Frustration.
Built with Purpose.
AVEA CRNA was founded by two Florida-based CRNAs and a healthcare executive with over 45 combined years in the OR, the ICU, and everything in between. After experiencing firsthand how broken traditional recruiting was — slow, impersonal, and deeply unfamiliar with what anesthesia practice actually requires — we decided to build the firm we always wished existed.
We're still active clinicians. We understand overtime, call, difficult cases, and what it means to walk into an unfamiliar facility cold. That's the lens through which we place every single candidate — and why our clients keep coming back.
