Arkansas Ranger Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I'm so glad to see an Arkansas thread now. I guess when I want to talk to myself I'll come post in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby029 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I'm not a PA yet. Undergrad currently. But it's nice to see there is someone in the field in Arkansas! Woo Pig Sooie! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkansas Ranger Posted May 8, 2010 Author Share Posted May 8, 2010 I'm not a PA either. I'm some kind of wannabe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdchudy Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I have been told that every state has different rules/regulations governing the practice of APN and PA professionals. Does anyone here know if the rules/regulations are more favorable for PA or APN in Arkansas? I am at a cross road in my education and I must make a decision by January as to which path to pursue so I am looking for ANY INFORMATION folks are willing to share to help with this decision. My personal preference would be to follow the path to PA since I feel like the training model (medical vs. nursing based) would be most helpful to me in learning how to care for a patient in a collaborative environment with a physician since there is common ground in training methodology. Again, ANY information would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator EMEDPA Posted September 23, 2010 Moderator Share Posted September 23, 2010 a buddy of mine who has been a pa for almost 20 yrs just moved there. he said it's like stepping back 20 yrs for pa practice. he has to run every case by a doc, etc. totally ridiculous. not a great pa practice climate by all accounts.

mjmkr123 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Hello Arkansas, lol, I'm looking at applying to the PA school in Searcy, still trying to build my prerequisites up as i will not apply this time but next year. Interested in any info or sites you can provide as I'm in the sponge mode right now. Here is one I found earlier today so if you know of any better let me know. http://hubpages.com/hub/Physicians-Assistant-Program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallcrest Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Well the trail is cold on this thread! But I'll take my chances. I am in Little Rock and looking to shadow a PA. I'm applying for next year's class, and I'm an ICU nurse. Would anyone in central Arkansas be willing to allow me to shadow for a day? Thanks to any who consider.

ARstudentPA Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I don't know if you've found it yet, but check pashadowonline.com! The last time I checked the only people who seemed really willing to allow shadowing were located in Searcy rather than Little Rock. But that's not too far to drive for a shadowing experience in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallcrest Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 thanks for the advice ARstudentPA. Are you in school in searcy currently? I am applying for entrance into the fall 2014 class there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARstudentPA Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Unfortunately, I can't be any more specific than saying I'm currently in PA school in Arkansas. I wish I could! I'd love to tell you all about it but I have to stay within the guidelines the program has set. That being said, I wish you the best of luck!
