Mentor Monday Spotlight: Josh Campbell, CRNA | USA Health Providence Hospital
Before the monitors are on and before the case begins, Josh prioritizes something just as important: how he connects with his patients.
As SRNA Scott shared (pictured left), Josh’s focus on communication is evident from the first moment of patient interaction, shaping how students think about their role before a case even starts. In an environment where time is limited, he reinforces how much those first impressions with a patient shape the entire experience.
Josh is intentional about how he approaches each patient from the start, taking time preoperatively to ask questions, listen, and understand what matters to them before moving into the clinical plan. He models how to build rapport quickly but meaningfully, showing students that even brief conversations can establish trust and set the tone for the entire anesthetic.
His influence extends beyond technical skills. It’s reflected in how students learn to communicate with purpose, build trust quickly, and approach each case with a patient-centered mindset.
Long after this rotation, it’s Josh’s approach to patient conversations that will stick with his students the most.
Thank you, Josh, for the way you care for your patients and invest in the students you teach! ⭐️
