Today I worked in fracture clinic. Tomorrow I am swabbing noses for rapid COVID19 testing. The following day I’m doing COVID19 phone screening. Next week I’m training for a new position doing periodic health exams for Parks Canada. I LOVE the variety 😍 #PAsDoThat#CanadaNeedsPAs
"The PA role is a career in its own right, and is not a stepping stone or a "doctor-in-training" program. There are more similarities to the PA role with Nurse Practitioners (NPs) than there are to other roles."

We have so many advocates in Canada, US and around the world for the PA profession. It’s a rare opportunity to be a pioneer in something and I’m proud to be one as a Physician Assistant in Canada. So many are working so hard to push us forward. Thank you to you all
