So I'm in a bit of a conundrum. Applied to and interviewed at three PGY1 programs, two hospital based and the other at Kaiser. From the interview and site visit, I think Kaiser would be a very good fit for me, but I'm unsure if it's a good idea to do (what is basically) an Am Care residency. Yes, it's listed as Managed Care, but at its core, you really do a good bit of Am Care work. My ultimate goal (I think!) at this point is to teach, but I'm wondering if Kaiser would exclude me from ever having a hospital clinical site, etc. To me, it just seems like a Kaiser residency would pigeon hole me into a very narrow scope of practice. And lets face it, Am Care pharmacy doesn't exist outside the walls of Kaiser or the VA (this is was PAs, NPs, and MDs are for). Any thoughts? Im wondering if i should just rank the hospital practice sites just to open up more doors...
