Clinical Experience vs Shadowing vs Volunteering | OldPreMeds Podcast Ep. 230

How do you tell if something counts as clinical experience? It's not about the title of the position. And it's not about being in a hospital. Let's talk about clinical experience on today's OldPreMeds Podcast! As always on the OldPreMeds Podcast, our question this week is taken from our nontraditional premed forum. Ask your own questions at http://premedforums.com! Today I'm answering a question from a nontraditional premed who has a potential opportunity to volunteer at a local free health clinic, working in the lab section. The message describes the position and asks whether this counts as clinical. Here are some points I discuss: • What is clinical experience vs shadowing vs volunteering? • Do you need volunteer AND paid clinical experience? • Why shadowing does not count as clinical experience. • Why I can't always tell you whether an activity is clinical experience based on the title of the position. • Why the phrase "limited patient interaction" tells me this is likely NOT clinical experience. • Does scribing count as clinical experience or shadowing? • What are some other examples of clinical experiences? • Does being a pharmacy tech or E.R. registration person count as clinical experience?
