What do Physician Assistants & Advanced Practice Nursing Providers do?
Physician Assistants (PAs) and Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs), such as Nurse Practitioners (NPs), are both Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) who deliver medical care, but they have different educational foundations.
PAs are trained in a physician-based, generalist approach. NPs begin with a foundation in registered nursing and build upon it with advanced nursing and medical education.
Both roles involve taking patient histories, performing exams, diagnosing and treating illnesses, ordering tests, and prescribing medications, often working collaboratively within a team-based care approach.
