So... How to be a Jonathan?

I’ve done shadowing and scribing (still a scribe) and it helps me learn so much. It may not the most glamorous job but it definitely does give a sample of what different clinic specialities and sometimes you feel happy for patients when they have a great result from treatments.

Currently working as a patient care tech and it's a great way to get experience. You're actually taking care of patients and not just writing notes plus you see what it feels like to be on your own and responsible for your own patients

How did you become a patient care tech? Did you take any classes or certification?

I feel like scribing is more than just writing notes. I get to work closely with the doc and see which tests and imaging at ordered based on the patients presentation. I also get to listen to consults, which also gives an insight on the course of care. Also, writing notes is a large part of being a doctor, and it provides exposure to medical jargon as well. Care tech is also a banging job imo

@@chloe94500 I am a patient care tech in an emergency department which I would recommend as I do more of a variety of tasks than if I worked somewhere else. The only requirement was to be premed at my hospital but every place is different. Most of the work I do was on the job training/ certifications through my hospital. You get a lot of patient experience and gain perspective from more of a nursing perspective but I still get to interact with our physicians and make good relationships with them. It has helped me to see what medicine is really like and what I will really be getting myself into with the good and bad. Scribing is good but if you want a more hands on approach to gaining medical experience I can't recommend PCT enough!

@@kevinsingh277 thank you for letting me know!

I worked as a medical scribe, and eventually became a manager of 60+ scribes in a big city, and i can’t recommend this experience enough to pre meds! As a fourth year medical student at a top 10 US MD school, there were many points along the way where I could tell my scribing skills really came in handy. I got to work in heme/onc, internal medicine, family medicine, pediatrics, metabolic medicine, and even vascular surgery, all before even starting my own medical training. Thanks for making an awesome review video on the pros and cons!

Thanks for starting this extracurricular series! This is the part of the med school acceptance process that I have the most questions on. I hope to see lots of videos for these!

Having worked and managed a scribe program in the emergency department setting for a few years prior to starting medical school, I can attest this is a wonderfully accurate and effective summary of the job. I might also add that seeing doctors take a history and perform the physical exam day in and day out provides a great opportunity to learn different styles and develop your own skills! Immediately on reaching medical school, I've stood out from my peers in my interactions with patients, from gathering an effective history of present illness, to performing a physical exam, and presenting patient cases to my attendings. I can't recommend it enough if you find that it's the right environment for you!

As a medical oncology scribe and chief scribe, this video is spot on in every way. The information is solid. As a manager, I’m also juggling supervising other scribes and keep good client relations with various clinics. It’s a challenge for sure, but one that I am grateful for. Thanks Dr. Jubbal for the good information!

Not sure if you should separate CNA/HHA/PCT or lump them together since most schools teach all three in one go. Also, MA, EMT, LPN, and even the rare RN (ASN/BSN) should be discussed. And can't forget about being a personal care giver for a loved one, which does count as clinical experience.

Scribing would potentially get you into shadowing opportunities as you're legally part of the healthcare team.

Thanks for the video! During the pandemic, I found scribing as one of the only viable options where I live due to increased healthcare restrictions. I ended up not scribing but instead pursuing EMT training, but I agree that it’s a good beginner clinical job

Being a paramedic as a PreMed gives you insight into what it's like to be an emergency medicine doctor so maybe you can give more information on that

Good luck! Glad you enjoyed the video. This is part of an Extracurricular series we are starting. EMT is already out. Research and Volunteering are in the works.

Maybe talk about the truth of working as a volunteer?? I think there might be a misconception about the weight of having volunteer experience on med school apps

@dominick6131

Жыл бұрын

Volunteering should be removed from all college and post graduate applications. It caters to the wealthy who can afford to volunteer and not have to have a paid job while in college. Secondly it's a basically extortion. Forcing people to provide free labor in order to get into certain educational programs is not truly voluntary

Would it be beneficial to shadow other members of the healthcare team such as nurses or athletic trainers?

Can you explain Pro’s and Con’s about CNA for Premed

I have a question. Which countries allow foreign medical graduates to work permanently? I’m a medical student in Vietnam and planning to work permanently in another country but I’m still quite not sure which country I should choose

do medical assistants!!

Would it be worth it to scribe for only a few months full time? (300-400 hours). Or should I just put the effort into something volunteer related that I could do for longer term? I already have some clinical xp over a few years working in-house as a PCT/CNA

Can you do a video abt becoming a emt and getting emt license to work in Er room

I actually took a phlebotomy certification course and just recently took the certification exam and plan on applying to work as a phlebotomist would you say that is better than medical scribe or just the same ?

EMT please!

Is this the same thing as a medical assistant?

I haven't found a single video on DPT !! am I on the wrong channel ?

Wishing anyone can give me some helpful advise plz! I am an international med student from Egypt; i still have 18 months of internship training/ clerkships to finish before graduating. I am at a dead-end trying to be financially able to take the usmles, so i am trying to see how i can i get into the US to work as a medical scribe or assistant or records clerk for a while to make enough money to take the exams and apply for residency. Any scribe position needs a work-permit visa like H1B1. How can I get such visa to work as a scribe (P.S. i have an American High school diploma)

I think you mean 'Loyal Scribe Jonathan.'

I feel so old starting college at 25 and a half lol. Better late than never

Hi! I’m a fourth year med student at a U.S. MD school, and scribed for 3 years prior to med school. But i also know some of my classmates who were MAs during their gap years. It can be more of a challenge than becoming a scribe as there is no certification required for the job, but you do need to have an MA certificate to become one, which typically requires enrollment in a 6 month-2 year program.

Can someone please tell me what is the minimum age of medical scribe? I’m 15 and are there any possibilities that I could be medical scribe?
