And BTW these are the same reasons I decided to be a PA. That and the horizontal mobility between specialty services. – at Winnipeg, Manitoba

It is an interesting situation with 80% of PA students being female and all high achievers. A majority tell me their reason is PA recommended by a MD, no residency, salary positions with benefits, & less committee or meeting time - more time for family. True?

I am very proud of the #UManitoba #RFHS MB_MPAS Class 2018 for (another) perfect pass rate on the Canadian PA Certification Exam. Joining the small ranks of those entitled to write MPAS, CCPA after their names. – at Winnipeg, Manitoba

Very encouraged to see that the Cornwall Community Hospital (@CCHCornwall) is looking at adding physician assistants to the ER during peak times — they are proven to help reduce wait times, improve patient flow + support overstretched doctors: bit.ly/2LKq6qC

If not for a PA who was in the right place at the right time during an Olympic Triathlon in southeastern Pennsylvania, a 51-year-old airline pilot would not be alive today. bit.ly/2LnCA4l

Macrolides bind motilin receptor in the gut. Translation - a pt with new onset diarrhea, could be that azithromycin that was started 3 days ago. #paschool #infectiousdisease #antibiotics

Always check and recheck your patient's medication list. Today? Aleve (afferent constrictor) + lisinopril (efferent dilator) combo in a diabetic pt with climbing BUN/Cr. Seems obvious...only once you see it. Be vigilant! #paschool #cardiology #nephrology #medicine #polypharmacy

There is a medical profession that extends physician care, 80% female, 15 applicants for each educational spot, in 32 different specialties, yet I doubt you have heard about it. In Manitoba since 2003. UManitoba.ca/physicianassist… new class starts Aug 27

Pearl from cardio rotation - don’t throw diuretics at an elevated #bnp Look at the whole picture. There’s other reasons than #heartfailure bnp will be elevated, and continued, further diuresis of a pt whose condition isn’t changing may not be the answer.
