LKPAC Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Can I ask why these are the endorsed candidates? I'm not disagreeing, just want to be informed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paula Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 The board felt these were the most likely candidates to uphold the PAFT outlook on the PA profession and had the experience and skills necessary to advocate for the profession. They were not regurgitating the standard AAPA stance. PAFT sent them questions and our decision was based on their responses. It is up to everyone to read the candidates platforms on the AAPA site before voting. The PAFT questions we sent to the candidates and their responses are not available to my knowledge.

TWR Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Paula, What were the questions the candidates were asked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paula Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Questions about PAs having professional responsibility for themselves, autonomy, title and branding questions, working to delete all restrictions, and supporting a major research project for PAs similar to the IOM report on nursing. I just voted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cinntsp Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Congrats to Dave Mittman on winning a director-at-large seat! Thanks to any PAFT members or other members of the forum that supported him with your vote. It's necessary to step up to the plate if we want meaningful changes within the profession. We should all follow such an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator rev ronin Posted May 6, 2015 Administrator Share Posted May 6, 2015 Now if AAPA would be humble enough to eat a bit of crow and invite Dr. Ben Carson back to speak at a national event, I might consider rejoining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
