Recently, a team of researchers at the NCCPA examined the impact of educational debt on PA specialty selection - tune in as we discuss their work as recently published in JAAPA. We know that the decision to specialize is nuanced, involving a PA's individual goals, experiences in PA school, job availability for each physical location, compensation, and levels of debt accrued in training. Listen as Andrez Kozikowski, Alicia Quella, and Mirela Bruza-Augatis discuss this important topic.
The American population is aging. In one century, life expectancy in the US rose from 47 to 78. In 2050, 20% of the U.S. population will be older than 65. With this in mind, we must identify ways to improve the quality of the final days of life. In this episode, we explore how the PA profession contributes to palliative care, focusing on symptom management, quality of life, and communication with JAAPA Authors Rebecca Jones and Natalie Mohammad.
