    We do 24 hour in-house calls in cardiology fellowship. During these calls, you’re the point person in cardiology for the entire hospital. On busy call days, you work every minute of those 24 hours. To give a reference point, during a busy call, my Apple Watch will record ~26,000 steps (~15 miles), and standing for 18 hours. Before I went into medicine, such things would seem unfathomable to me. But when you’re put in that spot, you just do it. Bottom line, don’t let videos like this discourage you. Human beings do amazing things, which may seem unimaginable before its done.

    I went through a tough program with 30 other students. Some were straight out of high school then undergraduate, then the professional program. While others had previous professions, prior military experience, and/or extensive work experience before they entered the professional program. I noticed the stress level, fear level, and most complaints came from those who had no prior work or training experience. I was one with prior experience. I found I could not study with those who did not have life experience because they spent study time festering over failing, competing against each other, or gossiping instead of studing. I found the program grueling but not difficult.

    It’s so interesting when the doctors make their rounds and they have the residence? Interns? With them. My one and a half year old has been admitted twice for the same thing in three months. Two weeks ago was when we got out and I was able to witness a teaching moment from the supervising doctor? Or something like that. Asking what they thought was wrong with my daughter and watching them give blank stares and looking around then watching the quiet one behind everyone speak out. They said it was from the ileus they diagnosed her with the first visit. They ran test after test because she would scream in pain. Hopefully these meds work that they gave her.

    I understand the stress and unhealthy lifestyle of the medics more ( long hours on call), the issue is that this phenomenon has costs. Lay patients going into hospital often see nurses and doctors that are very overweight, stressed out and some (@ small minority) , smoking near the bike sheds . I’ve witnessed Surgeons on the oxygen tanks before surgery, trying to clear their heads after a heavy night out. ( I worked in a surgical ward in my summer vacation when 20.). I think patients expect to see medical staff as super fit, healthy , mentally resilient all of the time. But they don’t. But it’s not the fault of the individuals. It’s the system. A Navy Seals induction.

    I am not a doctor (imagine this applies), but have worked my way up the ranks in a Fortion 100 company into a higher management position at such a young age with so many direct reports telling me the same exact thing (appearing calm and collected when everything and everyone is the exact opposite). The secret and what my mentor told me is controlling what you can control. I may not be able to control all the madness going on around me, but I can control my response to it. Many people look to me for answers, and I owe it to them to appear to be in control, even if truthfully I'm as scared or stressed as they are. Therefore if it makes a more stabile environment while giving others strength and increased moral even in the slightest by effectively managing how I display my emotions, then thats a no brainer. Granted my increased responsibility has thickened my skin which has allowed me to develop this masterful pokerface I am speaking of lol (hope that helps).

    @Chris - I don't know how much time you have in nursing, but in my ER, most of my nurses as fairly young and only have a couple years experience, with only the charge nurse and a couple others being more mature in their career. One time seeing a gsw a nurse commented to me "you look so calm". My reply was "this is one person, shot with one bullet. I know what the problem is, I just have to determine the extent" that plus my record having been 17 people shot in 12 hours, made it easier. It's the other things - the guy with the weird symptoms, is he sick or just weird? The nurse who is worried about something seemingly trivial - is something wrong or are they just overly concerned? The consultant on duty who is a known jerk, is he going to give me a hard time about this admission? It's stuff like that that stresses us out.

    Doesn't matter how you do it. Just get good grades, knock out the pre-reqs, and most of all kill the MCAT. Some of your BSN courses may over lap with the pre-reqs so that's a bonus. If it takes 5 years, its fine, just do well in school.

Your personal affairs are none of your program director's business as long as they don't interfere with your work performance. If their ability to trust you to take care of their patients depends on you disclosing your personal affairs, they need to step up their game.
