What is a Physician Assistant?
Physician assistants (PAs)
practice medicine under the supervision of physicians
and surgeons. PAs are formally trained to provide
diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventive health care
services, as delegated by a physician. Working as
members of the health care team, they take medical
histories, examine and treat patients, order and
interpret laboratory tests and X-rays, and make
diagnoses. They also treat minor injuries, by suturing,
splinting, and casting. PAs record progress notes,
instruct and counsel patients, and order or carry out
therapy, additionally, a PA has the authority to write
prescriptions if needed. PAs are licensed and regulated by the State of
Texas. www.aapa.org |
