Once a physician assistant gains acceptance into a residency program they embark on another six to twenty-four month journey pending on the program and chosen specialty. However, the length of most of these programs is around 12 months. The majority of residency programs provide a broad variety of didactic and clinical education. This is a key factor for those that choose the residency route in continuing education as a PA, as opposed to just attending medical conferences and other meetings that most physician assistants do once they are employed (Polansky, Garver, Wilson, Pugh, & Hilton, 2012). According to Ballweg et al., (2013), “residents estimated their total number of hours of didactic education associated with the residency program they attended to be 350.4 hours for…

Medical assistants perform administrative and clinical tasks to keep the offices of physicians, podiatrist, chiropractors, and other health practitioners running smoothly. The duties of medical assistants depend on the location and size of the practice and the practitioner's specialty. In small practices, medical assistants usually do many different kinds of tasks, handling both administrative and clinical duties and reporting directly to an office manager, physician, or other health practitioner. Those in large practices tend to specialize in a particular area, under the supervision of department administrators. “Administrative” medical assistants update and file patients' medical records, fill out insurance forms, and arrange for hospital admissions and laboratory services. They also perform tasks less specific to medical settings, such as answering telephones, greeting patients, handling correspondence, scheduling appointments, and handling billing and bookkeeping.…

My first job was working as Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA). I started working in the field when I graduated high school. A close friend introduced me to the nursing field. My friend said the job didn’t require much education, you just had to like working with people. I thought well, I am really good with people, I thought this should be easy. I worked as a CNA for about five years, and I realize that the job didn’t offer any challenges. I felt as if I wasn’t really going anywhere, I just had a job.

I like to surf the net, to create scrapbook pages, and do all my banking and personal finances on my computer. My friends and family call me the “Computer Guru” because I have taught them most everything they know about a computer. I first started using computers about nine years ago in my eighth grade year of school. I was taking a class in school that involved me using a computer.
