Physician Associate Preceptorship Programme
Physician Associates are a new healthcare professional who, while not a doctor, work to the medical model to deliver holistic care and treatment within the general medical.
Although Physician Associates are dependent practitioners, they can also practice independently and make independent decisions. This is enabled by collaboration and supportive working relationships with their clinical supervisors, meaning that there is always someone who can discuss cases, give advice and review patients if necessary.
The Royal College of Physicians hosts the Faculty of Physician Associates where you will be able to find out more information about the training and role of Physician Associates www.fparcp.co.uk or https://www.nwpgmd.nhs.uk/physician_associate
