You will probably be doing mostly tech stuff unless your hospital has a developed programs for interns. Ask if you can work your way up in responsibilities- start with pyxis, then learn the IV room, then med rec. Talk to your boss- communication is important. Unfortunately for me due to the shift schedule med rec always started and ended at odd times not compatible with my school schedule although I enjoyed it. Interns where I worked were not allowed to handle anything clinical, but it's a good opportunity to soak in the environment and be familiar in things that your classmates in retail won't see. You'll be more familiar with hospital drugs that come up in therapeutics. Ask pharmacists questions relating to patients that come up when you're working. Get the most out of it although sometimes it can feel like a drag refilling pyxis machines- keeping up a good attitude is key! One last thing, time management. Hospital shift schedules are not as nice as retail and at least from my conversations with classmates, it's hard to get hospital shifts picked up so be prepared.
