AB At  some  point  during  your  pharmacy  education,  perhaps  while  learning  therapeutics  in  the  classroom  or  while  practicing  patient  care  on  your  rotations,  you  will  learn  something  very  important  about  yourself.  Either  you  will  decide  that  you  belong  in  a  primary  care  setting  (e.g.,  clinic  and  outpatient  pharmacy)  or  that  your  calling  is  in  the  acute  care  environment  (e.g.,  inpatient  hospital  and  emergency  department  [ED]).  Of  course,  there  are  some  students  who  are  not  inclined  either  way  and  others  who  make  this  decision  during  their  Postgraduate  Year  One  (PGY-1)  residency  or  later  in  their  career.  Nonetheless,  if  you  prefer  a  fast  paced  environment,  thrive  under  stressful  conditions,  or  if  you  consider  yourself  to  be  an  “adrenaline  junkie,”  then  your  passions  likely  fall  into  the  acute  care  category.
