Great video! I’m coming up in my first year in the ED as my first job and I definitely agree. The bonus of having the variety of MDs to interact with is you get to learn so many different ways to practice and then take what fits best for you as you gain more autonomy.

Thanks for these videos you keep posting about your thoughts on certain things and the day in the life as a PA.

biggest thing with emergency medicine is trusting your assessment

That a 45 with a dot n surefire? 😮‍💨 And great content, very informative

Okay God, I hear you.

6:56 Hi Kaynen, thanks for making this. Is your pay better as a PA than when you were working as a nurse? I’m planning on applying to PA school soon but just recently learned from some of the nurses I work with that it’s possible to make more as a nurse than as a PA. And I’ve heard the whole “you shouldn’t base what you wanna do off of money,” but when you’re coming out of school with thousands of dollars in debt, planning to start a family, buy a house etc I think it’s something that should be taken into account. I was also wondering why you decided to go from nursing to PA? Hope to hear soon! Thanks

how vast is scope of practice at your ER? Are you able to participate higher tiered triages like the stroke and full areest you mentioned?

Would you recommend someone doing an ER preceptorship during nursing school?

What's the handgun with laser for? Do i need one of these when I get into the ED???

Hey Kaynen, been watching you videos since you were enrolled in your perquisites for PA school. Big fan. My question is did you have to do a fellowship or a residency to get your ER PA job? I heard many PAs saying that they did this because of the competitiveness of getting an ER PA job straight out of school.

Do you think that you were able to negotiate your pay as a new grad PA due to your prior nursing experience more so than a new grad PA without that prior experience? Do you think NPs get paid more than PAs due to their prior experience?

Where r u working and what’s your hourly? I’m a PA in cali

What’s the hourly range for cali n Nevada ? Is Texas hourly ranges close to those? Also is PA or NP better from ur emergency experience so far? And why? Also is there opportunities for overtime like RN? How does that work pls? 3x12s or moving around hospital to hospital . 4x10s . Can one refuse the schedule? Can you speak more in what these tiers are n it hourly ranges or differences ?also is holly in nursing school or she graduated bsn already n is a PA as well?

Hi! How does it work when you put in your order? Do u put it in and then the MD has to check it first? :)

Did you study a fellowship or residency to get into ER??? You do need a fellowship or residency to specialize in an area, or PA degree is enough???

Did you work as a cna during your nursing school? Or just for the certificate for the program

Sounds miserable, go work in a rural ER with 1 or 2 other physicians.

Working towards it bro thanks for sharing living my dream. 🙏🫵💪
