Recently had to give some bad news to a patient and felt unprepared in breaking the news with the most compassion. So I found this AAFP article which was very helpful.
We should all be prepared to break bad news in the most sensitive way.

Hi, student members! This month as final exams approach and some are graduating and taking the PANCE, I'm curious to know what motivates you to study hour after hour. What do you do for your "study breaks?"
Let's share our ideas!

"Aren't PAs the same as Medical Assistants?" Seriously! Questions like this can be frustrating; however, they are perfect opportunities to advocate for the profession. Read my latest thoughts on the subject: http://community.advanceweb.com/blogs/pa _2/default.aspx
