On November 27, Canadians celebrate National Physician Assistant Day, which recognizes the Physician Assistant (PA) profession and its contributions to health care in Canada. Working alongside physicians and other health professionals, PAs are having a positive impact on many aspects of health care including decreasing emergency room wait times, increasing access to primary care, and helping in acute inpatient medical and surgical settings.

Join us in celebrating these health care heroes today. Learn more about the profession by visiting the Canadian Association of Physician Assistants ( @capa.acam ) website at https://capa-acam.ca/.
