What's the difference between a clinic and a hospital?
141050
A clinic or outpatient clinic is a small medical facility that provides health care for ambulatory patients - as opposed to inpatients treated in a hospital. Some clinics function as a place for people with injuries or illnesses to come and be seen by medical professionals. In these clinics, the injury or illness is not serious enough to warrant a visit to an emergency room. Treatment at these clinics is often much less expensive than it would be at an emergency room. Also, unlike an emergency room these clinics are often not open on a 24 x 7 x 365 basis. These clinics often have access to diagnostic equipment such as X-ray machines, especially if the clinic is part of a larger facility. Doctors at such clinics can often refer patients to specialists if the need arises.

In the USA, a FP sees all ages while a GP sees adults. This is a general guide, not a law or anything -- a GP might see some child patients.

one doctor's office I go to is in various shades of green.  Has lots of plants and outdoors pictures. \n\nAnother one is in dark blue with maroon touches. \n\nI like the green one better, it just seems fresher

Both are in high demand.  I know that all the hospitals I'm at for rotation (I'm a physician assistant student) are needed both positions filled.  So no matter which you decide on you'll have a job.  Just as a side note - remember nurses may make a little more, but their jobs (in a hospital) are generally more demanding.  Also, a nurse is more flexible in where they work - ie hospital, clinic, nursing home, home care, etc.  A radiology tech is pretty much stuck at either a hospital or urgent care/multicenter specialty office.  So just keep that in mind too.  Either way, you (like most healthcare students) won't have a hard time finding a job.  Good luck!

Most of the ones I've gone to have a walk-in clinic, especially if it is something urgent. If it's for a birth control prescription, they'll usually see you right away.\nGo check it out. Just remember to make a donation if you can.

They're just like any other ward round. On any medical or surgical ward there will be a ward round first thing in the morning, and usually another one later in the afternoon. It's the same with psychiatric wards, the patients need constant reviewing from day to day so that the doctors can see whether they are improving or not, and consider whether any changes in medication or treatment are required. I'd imagine they pretty much started with the first psychiatric hospital.

A Medical Assistant is trained to work in an office setting. You learn to give injections, draw blood, assist the doctor, etc. and you also learn insurance billing, transcription, filing and other clerical duties. In nursing you learn patient care, whether in a clinic, hospital or skilled nursing facility. Nursing is more focused training.

There is no "pre-med major" at either school but both have many opportunities for people interested in becoming doctors, especially since both have medical schools and hospitals that undergraduates can volunteer in.  There are also "career services" staff that can advise students about med school requirements and such.
