Physicians Assistant: An Occupational Choice

Abstract: A 4 page statement written from the perspective of an individual pursuing certification as a physicians assistant. Notes that even a brief review of the licensing situation in the medical profession it becomes obvious that without professional certification and/or licensing an individual can do little in terms of patient care in any type of medical environment. Emphasizes that pursuing certification and licensing in the medical profession therefore becomes a priority for anyone that is interested in actively interacting with a patient to achieve physical improvement from whatever symptoms they are experiencing or to determine what the problem is in the first place. Outlines the personal experience of the applicant in phlebotomy, as a licensed practical nurse, and as a massage therapist, which has prepared the applicant for success in the future occupation of physicians assistant. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
