Hi Faha, thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to construct this list for me. Please do take care!

Just a heads up, I don't think the hours you spent shadowing non-clinical depts (food service, finance, etc.) count towards your physician shadowing hours. In the W/A, the category is "Physician Shadowing/Clinical Observation."

@Archemia Thank you for the heads up! I am yet to tackle W/A. I'm wondering if it's worthwhile to mention shadowing the other departments (which helped me develop a better understanding of hospital systems), maybe in the notes section for the shadowing activity?

You can definitely mention it, but don't include those hours. If you really want to, you can make an "Other" section and talk about your experiences in the non-clinical parts of the hospital.
