This is my experience of attending physician assistant school, graduating and working as a PA-C. Mostly. I'll talk about the daily grind too - hopefully some of it will be interesting. Post a comment, please. Even if it is just to say hi or to ask a question. I am a busy PA-C, so I may not respond promptly, but I will eventually. This blog is as much for me as it is for you. Or is that the other way around?

ACLS and PALS this week.
So we have ACLS today and tomorrow and PALS Wednesday and Thursday. Today went by quick and tomorrow we practice and test for ACLS. It sure has changed a bit since I last took it in the late 90s. It seems to be going well and I am told it was simplified a great deal since I took it. I had no problems then so I don't anticipate any this time around. It is nice to be learning and practicing some "real" medicine finally.
