After 8 years of school and 1 year of residency, I finally accomplished my goal of becoming a clinical inpatient pharmacist! I'll be recording my pharmacy journey - navigating life as a first time pharmacist fresh out of my pharmacy residency. I'll also show you a glimpse of what my life is like outside of work as well!
I am currently a float pharmacist, meaning I "float" around and work different areas of the hospital depending on where they need me. This video is a brief overview of what my day is like when I am covering the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) shift at my hospital.

Hey! I just discovered your channel as of 4 months ago and it really helps motivate me to keep pursuing my dream career as a pharmacist! I’m 16 in high school and tbh, there’s not enough pharmacist KZfaqrs out there.

Hyy hi Dr.Sarah, I'm in my 3rd year of Pharmd course.Can you tell me the best courses after completion of pharmd course

Wow. That's a lot of work for 7:15 am. I don't drink caffeinated drinks because I have some sort of sensitivity or intolerance. What other drinks or vitamins do you recommend to stay alert at your job? It's tough to be alert during the afternoon slump. Thank you for your service. You do a lot for the hospital.

Are you able to handle tea? I find that tea is a good alternative for those that can't handle coffee! I think having any sort of drinks and snacks with you to nibble on as you work helps :)

great video Dr. sarah! I’m not a medical professional by any means but I am a graphic designer and just wanted to drop in and say awesome video/graphics/storytelling skills!! where do you find non copywrite music for your videos? if you don’t mind sharing - thanks!

@SarahPharmD Ай бұрын

Awww, wow thank you so much!! That means a lot coming from a graphic designer 🥹 When I first started, I honestly just googled or search up copyright free music on youtube & hoped for the best! Now that I am monetized, it is a little easier now since KZfaq has a Creator Music option for us to select free music or purchase music to use.

Hii, i just started watching your videos :) Im going to be a pharmacist soon and i'm starting to explore ways I can keep guidelines/notes so I can refer back to it during work if needed.. Do you have any tips and do you keep something similar (for example google drive, notion, etc) ? Thank you! :) Love your content.

@SarahPharmD Жыл бұрын

Congrats! Yay, you must be excited :) I bought a 4x6 photo album from the dollar store and would put in print outs of guidelines and hospital protocols in there for a quick physical reference! I also created little check lists for all the different shifts so that I can stay organized and make sure I don't forget anything (ordering labs, changing the orders, signing my notes, etc). Ultimately, it's up to your personal preference!

Hi i really need ur help....is MSC oncology after finishing pharmd is a good idea or not, to become a oncology clinical pharmacist...i hope u reply me❤

@SarahPharmD Жыл бұрын

You can do a pharmacy oncology residency after completing your pharmD! Oncology is actually a big growing field in pharmacy so I think that’s a good path if you are interest in it ☺️

Were you a pharmacy technician before your residency?

In college I had my pharmacy technician license so I worked/volunteered at different pharmacies. During pharmacy school, I was a pharmacy intern at a hospital so I did a lot of technician duties like compounding IVs and restocking meds in the omnicells!

Hi is being a hospital pharmacist worth it like after 5 years will you be making alot of money or a community pharmacy is better

@SarahPharmD Жыл бұрын

I would say the hospital pharmacist pay is comparable to community pharmacy or even can be more depending on the area you work or hospital speciality!
