Alternative Career Essay - week 8

The alternative career I explored this week was a Pharmacist. A pharmacist is a healthcare professional who specializes in the field of pharmacy. Pharmacists are well informed and educated about medications, its usages, interactions, and proper dosages. Their primary role is to ensure the safe and effective use of medications for patients. The path to become a pharmacist includes earning a Bachelor’s Degree and then completing a PharmD (Doctor of Pharmacy) program, which usually takes 4 years to complete. After completing the PharmD program, aspiring pharmacists need to pass licensing exams to practice as a pharmacist.

Pharmacists have many duties in their occupation. Their first responsibility is to dispense medications by viewing prescriptions from healthcare providers and then giving patients the correct medications with accurate dosages. The second responsibility of pharmacists is to educate patients about their medications, including side effects, interactions with other drugs or foods, and proper usage. They inform patients how to take their medications safely and effectively. Another obligation of pharmacists is to work with healthcare professionals to monitor patient medication regimens, identify potential drug effects and recommendations to optimize therapy. Sometimes, pharmacists may prepare customized medications by mixing ingredients to create a specific dosage. Pharmacists are also able to consult and provide guidance to patients on managing chronic conditions, promote health lifestyles, and answer questions about over the counter medications or supplements. Pharmacists work in a variety of settings, such as community pharmacies, hospitals, clinics, research, academia, and regulatory agencies. 

The day to day life of a pharmacist varies on the facility and specialty they are in. A general overview of what a pharmacist does in a day includes medication dispensing, patient consultations, medication reviews, collaborating with healthcare teams, medication management, compounding and specialty services, administering medications, researching new drugs and combinations of chemical compounds. Some pharmacists work within business hours, while others may work evenings, weekends, or overnight shifts. 

The salary of a pharmacist varies on location, experience, and specialization. However, the average entry-level pharmacist in the United States earns $90,000 to $110,000 per year. Mid-level pharmacists earn about $110,000 to $130,000 per year. Experienced pharmacists earn about $130,000 to $150,000 per year.

I pulled an all nighter trying to catch up on chem but then I fell asleep in the study room at 7 am and realized it was time to go back to the dorms. the walk back home from study room always re-energizes me so I did my laundry at 8 am. after I put in one load, I decided to lie in bed and I accidentally fell asleep for 4 hours 🥲. I woke up at 12:45 pm in panic because I missed an appointment so sad I feel bad. I got my laundry and then I went to a lunch that my friend made for all of us at her apartment for my other organization. then I went back to dorm to finish my fat load of laundry. ending up taking the whole day and I was taking naps throughout. so unproductive so sad. im hoping to finish my school work tonight tho. also have major cramps and feeling extra lethargic.

jp: adam is taking the break well and hes preparing for his two midterms this week and this break is very beneficial for him and his mental health.
