 You've heard it here first, do you guys? Ding, ding, ding! The results are in. Adana wants to be in... You and I, we're not too lost to each other. So if you guys are Adana, welcome back to my channel. So if you are new to my channel, go ahead and do one thing for me right now and that is subscribe, hit that notification bell as well so that you know exactly when a new video is coming out and follow me on Instagram at AdanaThePA. I am going to be talking about what kind of PA I am going to be or I would like to be. You guys have been asking me this often, quite often and you know I have a better idea of what I want to do and what area I want to go into now that I am six months into my clinical year. I know it's kind of like tricky, you know, like I tricked you. Ha, sorry, I'm, I'm sorry guys. I still don't completely know but I do have a better idea. So after going through these clinical rotations this far I have been thinking to myself like what exactly do I want to do. And it's hard because there are so many areas that you can go into as a PA and then also there are so many different kind of hours that you can work. As I told you guys, you know, I've done pretty much like all of them I guess you could say so far. I've done four tens, I've done three 12s, I've done 24 hour shifts, I've did your, you know, five, eight hour shifts. So it's, it's been interesting trying to figure that out especially with the life that I want to live in the future and how much I want to see my kids in the future because and how much I want to see my husband because like I actually like him. I actually like hanging out with him and I like my family so I want to spend time with them. So it's important for me to have that time to myself and I've realized that I kind of really like these 24 hour shifts. They're really cool. If I'm doing, I'm only working six to eight times in a month period. Like that's amazing to me. I can go on vacations, I can just do things and not have to do PTO time. Three 12s are a little bit harder because you're like super tired. Like especially if you're working these three 12s like three days in a row it's tiring and that's kind of what you want to do because you want like a four day weekend which really you still only have a three day weekend because that last day you're spent catching up. But for me I've understand that I kind of want to do that and for that you have to find specific like inpatient jobs. So the trauma PAs do that. Some ICU PAs do it at different hospitals and then OVGYN PAs do it and I guess maybe like some of the other surgical specialties do that as well. So that's interesting. I've always wanted to do women's health and go into like OVGYN PAs be that specialty but guys I don't know if I want to, I don't know if I want to be like a master of one particular trade and then I kind of forget everything that I spent learning for the past two and some change years of PA school or if I want to be a master like a jack of all trades but a master of none you know and that's kind of like the the kind of balancing act that you have to do. So like do I want to be an urgent care or emergency medicine PA where I know a lot about like every like I know a good a little bit about everything but I don't know a lot about like one thing one particular area because seeing specialists seeing these people that are in particular specialties talk about their area it's amazing because they're so knowledgeable and they just sound so smart and they are because they have to know everything that they could possibly know about that particular area and it's really cool to see that but at the same time I don't know if I want to like be so super specialized right out of the bat so what I've been thinking is that I probably want to have like two jobs which I know it's kind of sounds like an oxymoron that I want to spend a lot of time with my family but right out of PA school I want to have two jobs but how I was to envisioning this is that I want to be able to do 24-hour shifts but at the same time have a job like at an urgent care because I used to work at one so and at that person go back to that urgent care and urgent care in the area that allows me to do PRN shifts just that I can just pick up so that I'm able to hone in on my specialty skills but at the same time moonlight at the urgent care so that I can keep my mind right and fresh and keep like you know doing more learning more as as I come and see these different cases come through so that is my my thing I think I want to be an OBGYNPA but I'll also want to work at an urgent care that's me, Adana halfway through my clinical years what I want to do as I graduate I don't know if that is going to change in the next six months um of clinical experience but um on my rotations but we'll see that's where I'm at right now so you've heard it here first do you guys ding ding ding the results are in Adana wants to be an OBGYNPA in moonlight at an urgent care I don't know if that's what's gonna happen but we'll see let's stay posted okay all right so that is it you guys if you have any other questions for me go ahead and leave it in the comment section below thank you guys so much for watching following me on this journey like not just following me but being a part of this journey with me you guys we have been in this thing for a year and like six months we're we're going strong we're doing good um and I can't wait for the rest of these um how many months I have I think I have eight more months left um including like my summative summer months so I can't wait to share those experiences with you I love you guys I will talk to you guys next time
