Cecil Said:

How do you get a Physician Assistant/Nurse Practitioner job at a Doctors office?

We Answered:

Those jobs both require post bachelor degrees. To become a physician assistant, you need a bachelors degree, and then you need two years of a physician assistant master degree program. To become a nurse practitioner, you first have to have your bachelor's in nursing. Then it's usually a two year masters program to become a nurse practitioner.
There's a lot of vacancies for both these jobs. The best thing to do, once you have the relevant education and experience, is to submit a resume to the hiring manager of any offices that you want to work at. You also might check the classified ads to see if there are any doctor's offices hiring for these positions.
Hope this helps...

Floyd Said:

Will I be able to do the job of a Nurse practitioner?

We Answered:

I think you'd be able to; all these medical fields, because they are in demand and will be even more in the future will start being more open-minded about their candidates who are already qualified anyway, and will definitely review positions for you. If you know your job well, I don't think being paralyzed would be an interference. Nurse practitioners work closely with physicians who already have other nurses doing other duties. It ultimately depends on who will be willing to hire you.

Hope I helped. =)

Which is the easiest to get a job in Nurse Practitioner, Nurse Anesthetist, or Physician Assistant?

We Answered:

What if you look those jobs up in the classifieds and see how many listings there are for those positions. I would assume since Nurse Anesthetist is more specialized it may be easier to find a job as one..
