A FULL day in the life of a hospital pharmacist | IV Central Shift
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ก.พ. 2022
- 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 IV central pharmacy shift at my hospital.

The job that every pharmacy student wants but only 10% will actually get, great video!!
Why is the percentage so low?
@@tahirymac451 Job saturation and many hospital jobs require residencies now which are also hard to get. Please if you go into pharmacy plan from even before you start school
@@coffeepandacat Not necessarily.
At my hospital we do not hire pharmacists who did residencies.
@@KillerAJ what state is that, if u don't mind me asking? Thx
Hey guys I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future. Thx for reading.
Love your videos. Manifesting this for me!
This is the best day in the life career video that I have come across. Thank you.
Aww, thank you so much! :)
As a tech who’s worked in hospital for almost 4 years now, I love seeing this perspective! Looks similar to our pharmacists’ duties at work 😊
Aww thank you!! 🥰
Thank you so much for sharing that with us
This is so detailed, for anyone interested in pharm!!
I love listening to podcasts on my commute and ending my evening routine with a book. Great behind-the-scenes video Sarah!
Thank you! Do you have any podcast recs? ☺️
@@SarahPharmD I am biased to say my own, The Burnout Doctor Podcast! I also recommend Your Financial Pharmacist podcast.

Atomic habits is such a good book! I really enjoyed it
It’s one of my favorite books now!
This video inspires me a lot , thx ✨💕
🥰 aww yay, I am so happy to hear that!!

A dreammm! I work as a pharm tech in retail and woo. I survive on woosahs and prayers
Loving these videos!
Yay! I am happy to hear that 🥺
Very cool vid Dr. Sarah 👌
Awesome video…. Thanks for sharing 😊👍🏻👍🏻
Dr. Sarah, thank you for youre video- I found what I was looking for , looking to study and change my career - from winemaker and Viticulturist to PharmD - biology, microbiology, chemistry as my top favorite things / subjects daily interactions- and staying busy / excel under pressure - I'm very much interested and researching best course of action for me - thank you again for youre video/ s
As a second year PharmD student, I Love this video
Thank you for watching! 🥰
This was an awesome video. In about 9 years from now I will (hopefully) be graduating from pharmacy school. Thanks for the great insight!
How long does it take to become a pharmacist?
@@W.L.F331 im currently studying to be one and it would take 6 years, i think it depends on how you pace yourself
yay for fellow pharmd content creators!
Yay! welcome :)
Loved it
I love how you edit your videos! 🥰
would you mind a hug for hug? 🥰
Awww thank you! ☺️
amazing!
Love your videos!! Your videos motivate PharmD students like me! Hope you do more professional videos!!🖤
Awwww! That makes me so happy to hear 🥰
I am in dilema whether to persue pharm D or not.. being skeptical about it scope😕
I love u
@@mohdrahat9417 so what didi u choose I am going through same right now
I can currently do this with my eyes closed. If you are a Pharmacy student, you can become a Pharmacy Technician and get into this position so you can then transition into the Pharmacist position when you are done with school. I prefer hospitals but don’t mind retail as a Technician.
Yes, I agree! This is why I highly recommend pharmacy students to get an internship. Most places like to retain their interns and it’s also good work experience 😊
HI ...!! I AM FROM BANGLADESH ...
I ALSO WANT TO BE A PHARMACIST
THAT'S WHY I JUST WATCH YOUR VIDEO ❤
I just subcribe you channel and would love to watch your upcoming videos , keep uploading...
Love from Indian pharmacist 🙂
Should I start learning Pharmacy right now despite the saturation and salary losses? Was finding a job easy for you?
That is a valid question and I'm glad to hear you're weighing the pros/cons of the profession before you start the journey! Yes there is a saturation of pharmacist, but the salary losses depends on what type of field of pharmacy you plan to pursue. I have not heard of any salary issues regarding hospital pharmacist positions, but it is prevalent for outpatient pharmacist positions. I was very fortunate to have found a job right away after residency, but it varies from person to person. Timing is a factor - the amount of pharmacists retiring from the facility, etc. If you are flexible and are willing to relocate, the job search might not be that bad! Try to reach out to your local pharmacists in the area and get their insight! Job prospects can also vary by location. I hope this helps!
It's my dream job ! I watch this video to motivate myself to study 🫶🏻
It’s not easy as it seems.
@@kensmith8275 I know, I'm already in college studying for it
you need to do residency if you want to work in a hospital pharmacy@@traseween
Hey, thanks for the great video. Im sorry for asking this question but i am making a decision for my future career. I need to know how is the financial situation of a pharmacist? I will be so grateful if you answer me.😊
Hey hi sarah hope you are doing good . I am doing my pharma d final year intership in india. Can you suggest which way to go like clinical pharmacist or research side like clinical research or pharmacovigilance? thank you :)
Good video
Thanks for the video it's really inspiring,so which one is the best to major in, when doing pharmacy? like either Industrial, retail,manufacturing, clinic or Hospital pharmacy.
usually if you want to pursue pharmacy, most people major in biology or chemistry or some sort of science major in college!
Vancomycin shiat is literally the only thing I've seen during my internship 😂
I am pharm D student in India ,my goal is hospital pharmacist in usa ,l hope l do my best ,thanks for inspiring the students for
Uploading these videos 😊
Thank you for watching 🥰
If you don’t mind, can i ask u abt how become pharmacist in hospital usa?
@@sarahfauziah9399
1. Study pharmacy

3. Apply to a hospital
Sister if we study pharm d in india ..can we get job scope in other countires as a feesher without any experience could u plz tell me sister ...
How was your route to become a pharmacist after high school? Would love it if you share 🌸
Great idea! I'll add that to my list of future videos :)
@@SarahPharmD Yes please! I want an idea of how it is to enter pharmacy
Dr.Sarah normal university phrama D one samester how much cost please replay ❤
My D Pharma course completed ..thenn how I cannn apply .in u.k..
Heyyy great channels, I have questions I getting into pharmacy sturdy and I been try to find some books about pharmacy do you got any recommendations? That would me a lot thank you
RX prep is a good summary of everything medication related that would be on our NAPLEX exam. I also recommend pharmacy students to borrow old RX prep books to supplement their more difficult therapeutic modules!
hey so I gave a question, I’m really interested in pharmacy school and I was talking to one of my aunts who’s a pharmacist and she says she recommends me to do 2 years of community college then go to pharmacy school, but at the same time I wanna have a college experience but I don’t wanna go to college where I have to do 4 years of college then 4 years of pharmacy school, what do you recommend or if you have another way tell me😭😭. Thank you
I’m biased but I loved my college experience at UCLA and highly recommend you fully enjoy a college experience 🥺 I say go to college with an open mind too! You’re still young and you may change your mind. My personal opinion is go to college and get your pharmacy technician license so that you can work part time at a retail pharmacy or volunteer at a hospital pharmacy so that you experience it yourself before you commit to pharmacy school! If you are really set on college experience + shortened pharmacy school program, there are rare accelerated programs like UOP that combines undergrad and pharmacy school!
Quiet busy schedule
Hay quá
Wow
Hi! Would you say this job is somewhat stressful or pretty balanced? It looks enjoyable to me :)
I would say it’s pretty balanced! There’s always going to be good days and bad days, but for the most part - I love my job ☺️
Good
Hello! I am really interested in pharmacy and I just transfered to a 4 year. Is the profession alive or as people say is it saturated? I live in southern cali
I will be honest - The profession has become quite saturated unfortunately and is quite competitive in popular areas like orange county and LA. However, if you are willing to relocate, it is easier to find jobs and you can possibly transfer to a more ideal location later on assuming you get hired by a large hospital with multiple locations (kaiser, VA, PIH, etc).
hi Dr sarah, how can i communicate with you ?
big question! i saw that your salary is about 140k or so, how much was your debt after pharmacy school? (not counting any debt during your college years by the way!) the money vs. debt is what's holding me back from pharmacy and pulling towards becoming a PA :,))
Student loans varies depending on what pharmacy school you end up going to! In general, most people I know have a range 100-250k in loans. I went to a private pharmacy school so my loans are on the higher end 🥲 BUT… if you end up working for a federal hospital or clinic, you can pay the minimum monthly payment for 10 years and the remainder of your loans will be forgiven! You can google PSLF for more info. This is what I am doing to offset my crazy loans! Haha
I always rp as a pharmacist in roblox! I kind of wanna be one, and my first choice was a nurse ! :)
Isn't everything just computerized? Like you just plug the patients information into a computer and it tells you exactly how much you need?
There are some aspects of hospital pharmacy that are computerized, but sometimes for doses and medications - it is not one size fits all! We have to personalize the treatment based on each individual patient :) But we do try to computerize everything as much as we can to prevent human error. Good question!
@@SarahPharmD interesting so is there a formula that you use?
LOL i think i went to high school with her... youtube world is wild!
Hello can you tell how much money we can get in canada after completing pharm d 😕
Sorry I am based in the United States so I am not sure how the pay is for Canada :5
I'm a 10th grader girl that is very inerested in hospital pharmacy. Do you have any tips throughout college or gcse exams?
Hi! For college, my biggest advice is try to get as much pharmacy experience as you can - get your pharmacy technician license to get a part time job at a local pharmacy or volunteer at a hospital pharmacy nearby campus (thats what I did). Experience pharmacy & observe the pharmacists there. See if you can envision yourself working as a pharmacist and ask them questions to gauge how they like the profession. The job market is getting increasingly competitive so you don't want to go through all that effort and realize you don't like it :)
I’m a 10th grade girl from Texas and I currently work at a small town pharmacy as a clerk. My plan is to become a pharmacy tech when I graduate then work for a bigger degree in pharmacy. That may change as I get older but I’m not entirely sure :). Good luck to you!
Y’all sophomore here also!
👍
I have a question Dr. Sarah 🌸can I still work in hospital if I study B. pharm
Sorry I am not too familiar with B.Pharm since I went through the doctorate route!
Where do u live
Where ur jobs in this timee sis???
My therapist just recommended the book you were reading! A sign or coincidence?
Haha a sign!! ✨ it’s a great read
Is pharmacy super hard? I'm in highschool and I want to be a pharmacist but I wouldn't consider myself super smart
Yes, I will not lie! haha Pharmacy school is very difficult unfortunately. More drugs are being developed constantly so the amount you have to know/memorize is way more than years previously. Clinical guidelines are always changing as well so you have to be diligent & stay up to date. However, that being said, I didn’t consider myself super smart either and I was able to do it! I think we all suffer from imposter syndrome. But you’d be surprise by how much you can learn if you’re motivated enough!
What is the salary per hour as a hospital pharmacist plz inform in short
it varies a lot from state to state and even the city depending on the cost of living. Hospital Pharmacist around my area make ~130-150k a year
I am doing bpharm in India and is it easy to get job at foreign country after my studies??
It's very hard and lots of things to do if you plan to come to the US. Canada is easier that is a good option
It is becoming more and more competitive in the US for pharmacy so it might be more difficult for you coming from a different country unfortunately :(
I’m starting my job in the hospital tomorrow 😮
OooO how exciting, congrats! Good luck on your first day ☺️
@@SarahPharmDis it hard ? Working in hospital pharmacy. I am currently working in retail pharmacy and it’s stresses me out.
@@SarahPharmDmy first day hands on training is next week. I am just doing computer learning at the moment.
@@orangejuice670 It might be stressful when you first start off because a lot of things will be new to you since you come from a retail background, but once you get the hang of it - it's not too bad! How busy work will be really depends on your hospital and their census and their formulary. You got this!
How long is schooling ?
4 years! And an optional 1 or 2 years of residency after if you want to specialize or become a competitive candidate for a clinical pharmacist position!
Did you have to be great at math to become a pharmacist and is it stressful? Loved the video tho!
Math comes up a lot in our profession unfortunately so you can’t really avoid it! But you will learn what you need to learn during pharmacy school. Yes, some days can be stressful! It varies depending on your day and depending on what shift, which is pretty normal in healthcare. Some shifts are more stressful than others and some are more chill :)
@@SarahPharmD Alright thank you so much!
This job is good for introverts. Don't you think?
Yes I agree! I rarely interact with patients and I usually communicate with nursing and providers via teams or on the phone. I mainly work directly with the pharmacy technicians or fellow pharmacists during this shift ☺️
my name is sarah and this is my dream job lol
Aww, you got this! Excited for you achieve your dream job 💕
which is more better (pharm d) or (b pharm+ m pharm)
WHIS IS MORE PRODUCTIVE AND WORTH?
Pharm D if you want clinical stuff.
Bpharm and Mpharm if you want more industrial and research based studies.
Also, Pharm D is the basic qualification if you want to be any kind of pharmacist in the US. Even if you are a Bpharm graduate, you have to get a Pharm D degree and give respective exams to work in the US as a licensed pharmacist.
If you're a Pharm D graduate, you are directly eligible for the exams for the licensing.
So really, it depends on what area on pharmacy you want to work in :)
@@Megha486 l
@@Megha486 licensing exam??
in which country do you work ??
United States!
Can u please tell how much money salary u get as pharmacist or pharmd course in us??😩 is it worth it??pls reply
It varies depending on where you are located in the US and what city! As a hospital pharmacist in the west coast in a popular city, my current salary is ~140k a year
The “is it worth it?” question will vary depending on who you talk to! The job market is becoming increasingly saturated so I would keep that in mind. I love my job - so for me it is worth it, but I am just one person!
Oohhhh thank you sooo much 🥺💕💕💕it helped me alottttt 🫶🏻

It is worth to come to USA as a pharmacist
To be honest, it is a highly competitive profession right now so it might be even more difficult for foreigners :( I am not sure about the process for people outside of the united states coming here to work

Do not go into pharmacy. It’s the WORST possible career to go into. In fact, avoid all healthcare fields..they are the worst. Go into tech I.e comp sci, etc. way better work life balance.
Good luck having a low GPA and being mentally drained all throughout college. Plus, some people actually want to help people and add value into the world. You just want the easy, comfortable option
