Need your gallbladder taken out electively? Too late (waiting for auth), now you’re in the ED with cholecystitis.

Had a “nodule” seen on a CT, but couldn’t get a repeat scan authorized…ever? Now it’s metastatic and you’re in the ED for crippling pain.

DVT? No problem, started you on blood thinners. Oh, but your insurance wouldn’t cover it? Wait for it…now you’re hypoxic with submassive PEs.

You’ve been having severe migraines, and insurance requires you to do a “trial of meds” before getting a MRI. The meds don’t cut it, you’re in the ED and turns out, you have an aneurysm. And it’s bleeding.

The examples go on.

@julie_justo @SIDPharm @accpinfdprn @emilylheil @KisgenUF @IDstewardship I just did a presentation for Rebyota! Excited to cover this at our next P&T. Echo the cost!!!!

If you ever feel like no one reads/will read your progress notes, just know there’s a pharmacist out there (me) reading every single note, imaging report, cath report, procedure, etc. #TwitterRx #PharmICU

Any recommendations for ambulatory care focused pharmacy conferences?

[Karla Mia Kristo @karlamiaRx]

@PharmD_intheED Did not pursue PGY2 and just accepted an offer as an ambulatory care clinical pharmacist 😊

@rcmccorm Open zoom or whichever video application you’re using to test out the lighting, height and background prior to interviews!

[Karla Mia Kristo @karlamiaRx]

Starting my first pediatric rotation (gen peds) as a resident! Excited is an understatement 🤩 if anyone has any general pearls or great resources/ppt to share I would be very thankful!!

[Karla Mia Kristo @karlamiaRx]

@danielle_mcph Oh I may take you up on that! Can you message me?

[Karla Mia Kristo @karlamiaRx]

@arba239 If it makes you feel better I didn’t take it and still passed! But I heard it does help you be more comfortable with the format.

[Karla Mia Kristo @karlamiaRx]

Officially a licensed pharmacist 🙌🏼 going to celebrate these wins and the hard work I’ve put in these past six years
