Please provide us with the same guidance our medical peers are receiving from their governing bodies. I would expect no less.

With those of us set to graduate in July we are ready and willing to help in such a crisis as this. This would proved such an incredible learning opportunity for us a clinical PA students, close to graduation even sitting at desk listening to the conversations and solutions being tossed by providers around us. We understand the want to keep students safe as well as patients. We want to be of aid. We have worked so hard for this education and a delayed graduation is having huge financial implications on many of us. My plea is that Arc-PA provide some innovative continued learning solutions as we all sit out of clinic for 4 weeks, as well as provide guidance for the programs who are sitting in limbo through this.

As a clinical PA student weeks away from graduation, I feel a call to action in this emerging crisis. A dire need for quality healthcare providers in the next few months has been made abundantly clear. ARC-PA needs to address this unique situation and offer progressive solutions to students who planned to graduate in Spring 2020 so we can offer our quality service to communities in emergent need.

I am extremely disappointed at the discrepancy between AAMC and ARC-PA graduation plan. The AAMC statement is advocating for medical student education to continue and allow alternatives of in person clinical education. The AAMC has proposed programs use online modules, paper cases, simulation. The UK and Italy are expediting graduation to add to the workforce.
The Physician Assistant profession was created to fill the gaps in the healthcare. ARC-PA please uphold this mission statement and be flexible in finding a way to allow the next generation of providers to enter the work force AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Students give years of hard work and sacrifice to reach this point. It’s time for the governing body to help students during unprecedented time.

I agree. There are many PA students eager to graduate and start helping, myself included! We can contribute to the fight against COVID—19 and start making a difference! Help us graduate!

The second paragraph needs to be corrected to say “clinical sites” rather than “clinical sights”

It is time for ARC-PA to put aside their paternalistic decision and allow choice. This is literally why PAs were made, to fulfill a need when the country called for good practitioners with limited time.

We need guidance from ARC-PA and alternatives to clinical hours. ARC-PA should be supporting social distancing recommendations by giving our programs guidance as to how they can provide meaningful learning opportunities we can complete at home.

Other healthcare professions will move forward with credentialing and fast-tracking clinicians. As part of our collective history, PAs have been left on the sidelines regarding legislation, public opinion, and opportunities. ARC-PA can be part of the solution of moving young PAs forward or continue in self-sabotage of the profession in the name of “standards.” No one will look out for us except ourselves; putting a bottleneck on the profession, while other healthcare professions create solutions in this pandemic, will only serve to perpetuate the many issues we as a profession face. Please choose to be part of the solution, not continuation of the problem.

I'm a PA student set to graduate in May, and I've been forced to cut my clinical rotations short even though I'm dying to be out there helping. My classmates and I are equipped to help fight this pandemic if given the opportunity.
