Health Care Programs in Physician Assistant

The physician assistant's role on the medical team is to take the patient's history and begin the diagnostic and treatment process. Physician assistants also perform first aid such as debriding and suturing wounds, wrapping or splinting injured joints, and putting casts on broken bones. Doctors also have a high degree of latitude to delegate additional responsibility to their physician assistants, including the ability to prescribe controlled drugs and assist in surgery or even, in some states, perform minor surgery unsupervised. The program covers topics such as public health, health policy, education, pharmacology, medical ethics, practice management and several clinical specialties.
