Hughes, P.A.-C, has plenty of opportunities to do what she enjoys most - intract with a wide range of patients at one of the region's largest and busiest family medicine practices. For the past year, Hughes has provided the five family physi- cians at Dallas Family Practice with critical support, both in the exam room and during patient ‘rounds’ at local nursing homes. “She's a very skilled and caring health provider who works closely with all of us in managing our patients,” says Dr. Irvin Jacobs, the physician who founded Dal- las Family Practice in 1970. “We are fortunate to have her.” Her role at Dallas Family Prac- tice did not come without hard work and comprehensive train- ing. Hughes explains that as a physician assistant, she is li- censed to practice medicine with physician supervision. Physician assistants are graduates of ac- credited P.A. programs and are certified by the National Commis- sion on Certification of Physican Assistants. To achieve her pro- fessional status, Hughes atiended Marywood College, Scranton, where she graduated with honors in Nutrition. She then decided to pursue a Physician Assistant de- gree from Hahnemann University, Philadelphjia, where she also graduated with honors. Before pursuing a career as a physician assistant, Hughes worked in Philadelphia in an ad- ministrative position. While she enjoyed working in that capacity, she soon discovered she preferred working more closely with pa- tients. “I was getting away [rom patient care in that position,” she LOUISE HUGHES recalls. “I missed the interac- tion.” Within the physician/P.A. re- lationship, physician assistants aid in medical decision-making and provide a broad range of diag- nostic and therapeutic services, including performing physical examinations, diagnosing and treating illnesses, ordering and interpreting lab tests, suturing wounds, assisting in surgery, and making rounds in nursing homes and hospitals. Asa physician assistant, one of Hughes’ most critical roles is to help provide more access of care to patients. “P.A.'s can assist in accommodating emergency care patients without taking away from patients with scheduled appoint- ments,” she says. “It helps make the practice more efficient.” Physician offices throughout the region are increasingly recog- nizing the importance and ben- elits associated with physician as- sistant services. “Basically, aP.A.

PENNSTATE SENIORS, what ou Wilkes-Barre wb Campus can provide up to 80 per cent ofa patient's primary care,” Hughes explains. “If a situation arises that I'm not comfortable with, I'll call upon my supervising physi- cian to see the patient. It's a collaborative relationship.” In addition, to her work, she keeps busy with her responsibili- ties as an adjunct professor at King's College in its physician as- sistant program. Hughes also derives great per- sonal fulfillment beyond her ca- reer as a physician assistant. Her family life is especially gratifying because at the end of every day she returns home to her hus- band, Paul, and to their twin daughters, Rebecca and Lindsay. “I'm fortunate to truly enjoy my profession while also enjoying such a wonderful family life,” she says. “It's a perfect balance.” Trucksville UMC notes Laity Day Trucksville United Methodist Church celebrated Laity Day on Sun., Oct. 20.
