    • @hellenvasquez6205
      @hellenvasquez6205 2 місяці тому

      No, from personal experience Medical Assistants are able to assist a nurse, nurse practitioner or provider but they don’t have the ability to diagnose or prescribe medication the way a PA or Doctor would. It’s more like vitals, assisting in minor procedures, some do ekgs, things like that.

    • @ryanvelez6762
      @ryanvelez6762 2 місяці тому

      Yes but dentistry is a speciality the person has to want to be in. Very repetitive and if you’re becoming a dentist it’s obviously more years in school than a pa. If you go the hygienist route that is Super specialized and repetitive with a small scope of practice

    Great video, I was wondering if someone can help me with a question I have. I have my bachelors degree and almost all my prerequisites. I'm only missing several classes. I would like to take them at my local community College, I have seen in more than 1 PA program that they only accept classes/prerequisites from 4 yesr universities. Is this a common thing? Also, what are your guys opinions on retaking classes? For example, my worst science grade is AP1 with a C. Should I retake it? Thanks in advance and any help is appreciated.

    Hello, thank you for this video. It was super helpful I’m considering pursuing this career. But as a female in her mid-20s, I’m worried about the short time in to start a family and juggling that work life balance. Do you feel that having this career but also 3 to 4 kids is possible?

    • @LauraCoralPAC
      @LauraCoralPAC Рік тому

      One of my favorite things about the PA field is the flexibility versus other advanced medical tracks. I've worked with many wonderful providers that have been able to both juggle families and work as a PA. Good luck!

      They range from place to place with varying responsibilities and roles. Some are high stress and very demanding (surgical) whereas others are less chaotic (outpatient clinics).

      You can do your bachelors in many majors, you need to meet the pre-requisites of each program before you can start. I did mine and Biology and Biotechnology. Hope that helps!

    I had a classmate tell me that if you go to school in one state you may not be able to practice in another state with different regulations and what not. Example going school in texas and moving to california for work. I thought this was incorrect when i heard it because the PANCE is a “national” certificate but this person swore that was the case. Any information on this topic you can provide? also great video I am making a playlist of helpful PA videos for the future and I added yours to it!

    • @LauraCoralPAC
      @LauraCoralPAC Рік тому

      You have to apply to be licensed in each state and graduating in a state doesn't necessarily grant that state's license. I can say from experience, that when you move to a new state it takes several months to get a licensed in the new state.

      @LauraCoralPAC Рік тому

      Every place will be different. Many colleagues that I have worked with have worked in roles where prescriptions are not part of their job, you can also consider integrative health, which is more preventative focused rather than medication oriented. But as a PA you are allowed to prescribe.
