@jakethepa: I never want to get so used to being in the room that I forget what it felt like when being in the room was the dream. When I was a CNA, I’d walk past the provider lounge and think everyone in there was so accomplished. Sitting at that table felt impossible. Now I’m in that room every day, and I never want to forget what it felt like to be on the outside looking in. Sometimes the best reminder of how far you’ve come is remembering who you used to be. #physicianassociate #physicianassistant #paschool #doctor #nurse
That’s so full circle though. Congratulations! Can’t wait to get there.

Currently in PA school. I remember trying to figure out a way to even get a job in healthcare coming from a non healthcare family where college isn’t really a thing. I started off as a dietary aid, I was so excited to wear scrubs. Then became a dental assistant, and then respiratory therapist, now I’m in freaking PA school. I still cannot believe it. I’m shook. Like how the heck did I end up here!? All those jobs I remember thinking all the DR/NP/PAs being so cool and how I could never.

Currently a cna and I find myself doing that all the time, I’ll be starting nursing school in the fall with hopes of becoming an NP in the future. Glad to see I’m not the only one who feels/felt that way
