The PA on the health care team.
In order for the physician assistant (PA) to function as an effective member of a health care team, he must develop certain skills and abilities. These include personal and professional awareness of himself and others, interpersonal and interprofessional communications skills, and appropriate interfacing techniques which enable him to establish harmonious working relationships with his team members. The PA profession, by its very nature, lends itself naturally to the team delivery of health care.
