Book excerpt: In reading ALL IN: The Making of a PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT, one begins to understand that the PA has chosen a vocation in which work will permeate all the hours of a day. Being a PA is an extension of the Hippocratic Oath to treat the sick to the best of one's ability, preserve patient's privacy, teach the secrets of medicine to the next generation. A Physician Assistant's greatest value is being both available and approachable in providing knowledge and skills while continuing to learn from patients, their peers, and the physicians they are working with. This author shares a "slice of this life" during her PA employment of 38 years. The PA profession was established in 1967 with the return of medics from the Vietnam war and now more than 150,000 PA's practice in outpatient offices, hospitals, urgent care centers, in surgery, and in the emergency rooms. The deep roots of the PA profession are firm with the earnest tireless energy of PA's over 54 years. Becoming a PA is often pursued after one observes and works with PA's who consistently address unique patient needs in these clinics, hospitals as well as in community settings. Today, Physician Assistants rank #1 in 100 Best jobs of 2021 according to the U.S. News and World Report with the demand for PA's increasing more than 300% from the prior 10 year period. According to the most recent Harris Poll, 93% reported extremely high satisfaction with PA's as trusted healthcare providers, and 91% felt that PA's have improved the quality of healthcare. Truly the impact PA's have had on patients is exemplified by the bonds patients have with these medical providers. It truly is a privilege for a Physician Assistant to provide this care.

Atabong embarked into the unknown in search of hope. He was eleven, but he triumphed against all odds to give his children the best care and education available. Eventually, he sacrificed his most valuable possession, his son Sixtus, sending him to study in the United States with nothing more than lessons learned from his days working the farms and his father's basic biblical teachings. Sixtus Atabong's journey of temptations and challenges in the US gives rise to a mission: to give back. He uses his gift to extend God's healing hands and unfailing love to the far corners of the earth through sustainable health care infrastructures.

Download or read book Adventures of a Grenfell Nurse written by Rosalie M. Lombard and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-27 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like other children of the 1930s, I read about the adventures of Sir Wilfred Grenfell, who worked among fishermen in a very cold, icy place way up north called Newfoundland and Labrador . . . It was many years later, during my student-nursing days at Columbia-Presbyterian, that I really learned what the Grenfell Mission was all about. I was intrigued at the thought of, someday, using my nursing skills there. After graduating in 1951, I remained at the medical centre for another year of nursing experience. In that time, I had gotten tired of the large city and yearned for a more adventurous working environment. Those earlier seeds about the Grenfell persona had sprouted. In the summer of 1952, I met with the International Grenfell Association secretary and signed up as an assistant nurse in St. Anthony. The seed that had been planted so many years before had finally blossomed and would lead me to great adventures. Adventures of a Grenfell Nurse is a riveting collection of stories that share the experiences of a Grenfell nurse in the early 1950s in the subarctic climate of Newfoundland and Labrador: a train wreck, a dogsled trip, the delivery of a baby on board a coastal steamship, a harrowing sailing experience, a near-shipwreck in gale-force winds, and much more!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Shoot” hollered Willie B. “Where” I screamed. “Shoot, Shoot.” Screamed Willie B. Again. I clicked my rifle from safe to full auto and let it rip in the direction of the tracers from the other two guys. I fired one complete magazine. I had no idea what was happening. I changed magazines. I buried my face in the dirt attempting to make myself invisible. I was terrified. I lie there cowering by hiding my face in the dirt. I had no idea what to do. “Shoot” screamed Willie B. again . My rifle had a bi-pod attached to the front of it as it was a select fire. (Semi or full auto). I extended the bi-pod and again ripped off full auto rounds. My hands and fingers were moving too slow. It was as if I was moving in slow motion. I couldn’t make my hands move any faster. I kept shooting like the other two . At what, I had no idea. My heart was pumping ninety miles an hour. I heard firing erupt from the NDP then stop. A piece of hot brass hit me in the neck and went down my fatigue shirt burning the hell out of me. I kept firing and trying to shake the hot brass out of my shirt at the same time. I had fired six magazines before I noticed the other two had stopped firing. I errently touched the barrel of my rifle and got a burn that bubbled up the skin. We all lie still. My mouth was so dry, I couldn’t swallow. I was shaking badly and couldn’t catch my breath. Again, I buried my face in the dirt in a futile attempt to escape. I didn’t like any of this. This wasn’t at all like playing soldier in the back yard as a kid. - In this touching memoir and short story collection, Beutlich chronicles his experience during the Vietnam war. It showcases incredible military adventures, perfect for readers who are into reading thrilling war stories.
