Geriatric Education for Physician Assistant Faculty. Final Report

摘要

This is the final report of a two-year faculty development project for Physician Assistant (PA) teachers in geriatrics -- the GEPAF project. It was significant for at least two reasons: (1) It is the first and, to date, the only national faculty development project funded for teachers in PA programs; (2) It has helped prepare PA faculty to provide their students with geriatric skills that will be increasingly in demand through the next few decades, especially now that Medicare reimbursement has been authorized for PA's.
