Physician Assistant Jobs in College Grove, TN

A Physician Assistant (PA) is a key contributor in the advanced practitioner industry, providing diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventive healthcare services under the supervision of physicians and surgeons. They obtain patient histories, conduct physical examinations, order and interpret diagnostic tests, diagnose illnesses, develop and manage treatment plans, prescribe medications, and often assist in surgery. They work in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, and other types of health facilities. A PA may also carry out research, teaching, and administrative functions.

The role demands a high level of competence, necessitating skills in critical thinking, communication, problem-solving, and a strong knowledge base in medical sciences. Essential certifications include a license from the state in which they practice, and certification from the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA). Prior to becoming a Physician Assistant, individuals typically have experience in roles such as a Registered Nurse (RN), Medical Assistant, or Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). This healthcare experience is often a prerequisite for admission into a PA program, which culminates in a Master's degree in Physician Assistant Studies or a related field.
