Linda's Podcast: Who Cares?

Business


In a slight departure from our usual subject matter, in this episode we take time to understand in more depth the relatively new role of Physician Associate. This is a role for which there is formal post graduate training and qualification, though at present the regulation is by proxy via the Royal College of Physicians rather than through a separate body. Victoria describes the benefits of the role in providing better care in the clinical setting as well as the challenges of ensuring universal acceptance and understanding.We hope that this episode furthers the cause.By the way, we play hockey together hence the terrible picture of me.
