About the Instructor
Megan M. Taylor, CRNA, APRN
Megan comes from a long line of doctors, nurses, and medical professionals. She worked through nursing school as a nurse’s aid and was exposed to multiple critical care settings. After nursing school, she worked at a Level One Trauma Center in the Medical and Surgical Intensive Care Unites. It was in this setting that she found a passion for caring for patients in pain. Following graduate school, she spent time working in a small, independent anesthesia practice in rural Vermont. She currently works at PainCare, a leading medical practice in the northeast dedicated exclusively to pain management.
