    Attention Members!

    We have two unique opportunities to help our PA Palliative Community!

    Both are great opportunities to share your skills & knowledge, 

    while building your own resume!

    PA Foundation Seeking Palliative PA to Help "Author/Review"

    The PA Foundation in partnership with the organization, Allied Against Opioid Abuse, are seeking a Palliative PA to help with a blog on the topic of "opioid abuse/misuse for families who may be caring for loved ones at home who are in hospice or palliative care and have pain meds in the home, which can be a risk to other household members.  

    Are you a PA working with experience with this population? This one has a quick turnaround--we need to know ASAP so that they can interview you the week of June 28th and with a small time commitment, work on a blog post around this topic.  

    Let us know us know if you are interested by June 26th!
