“If at first you don't succeed, you're running about average” ~M.H. Alderson. This quote is important because succeeding at everything is practically impossible. If you don’t get a job or cant figure something out you should not think of your self as a failure because you cant achieve everything. I first got introduced to anesthesiology from my dad. He was telling me how it would be cool to make a career out of and he could see me doing that. My whole family works in the medical field so it is kind of a must. I will be researching the salary, work conditions, training you must have, and the employment right now.

Introduction

Make sure patient has vital life functions during surgery Monitor fluid output and input and placing IV’s Responsible for the patient's care while recovering Must place a breathing tube in patient’s trachea or

“windpipe” Examine patient, obtain medical history and use diagnostic

tests to determine risk during surgical, and obstetrical

Nature of Work

My career is mental. It is mental because you are just writing information on paper

about your patient. The only thing physical about it I guess is when you are giving the patient treatment.

It’s also indoor. An anesthesiologist is at a hospital on a regular basis. If I had to take a guess on hours I would say 10-12 a day.

Working Conditions

A undergraduate and medical degree is required. University of California (San Francisco) is listed as

number one in the United States for anesthesiology so hopefully I can get my degree there.

To prepare myself now I will probably look into advanced chemistry and biology.

Training, Qualification, Advancement

The employment rate is 24% (faster than national average) and rising.

I would like to get job in a city or in a nice state.

Maybe Chicago, Illinois. There is no particular hospital I'm interested in

yet.

Job Outlook/Employment

Medium Salary : 372,722 My lifestyle goals with this salary would be to have a

nice sized house and a family of 4 with some pets. Backpack Europe or Australia. + Attend a concert front row at Madison Square

Garden. + Live in Los Angeles or London. +

Earnings

– Interior Designer

One responsibility is making sure you please and meet all the needs of your customer.

An Associates of arts in interior studies is required. The employment rate is rising by 13%. Medium Salary: 23,000.

Related Occupation

After doing all this research I’m and still very interested in this career. In fact it made me more intrigued. The one thing I look forward to most is just figuring out the correct dosage of anesthetics for the patient. The thing I look forward to the least is placing a breathing tube in a patients trachea. My overall learning experience after making this power point is that it’s a great career to pursue.
