| | Volunteers from OAPA's Board of Directors, committee chairs, AAPA delegates, and SCSRs recently convened an in-person leadership retreat to evaluate what's working and what isn't in OAPA and start sketching the priorities that will define 2027. Check out the recap to see what was discussed and how you can get involved. |
| | OAPA thrives through the time, talent, and dedication of our members. We are now recruiting volunteers for the Communications, Diversity, and Student Affairs Committees. Learn more about the benefits of volunteering with OAPA and raise your hand today! |
| | There are moments in every profession when standing on the sidelines will impede progress. For Ohio PAs, that moment is now. The decisions made in the Ohio General Assembly over the next several years will determine whether our profession continues to advance or whether outdated laws and entrenched interests dictate the future of PA practice. Will you show up for yourself and your colleagues? |
Top | | The Well-Being Checkup and Referral Engagement (CARE) Service is a simple, free, and anonymous checkup of your mental and emotional health, available through OhioPHP. Using CARE is quick and easy - just take the 10-minute survey, receive your personalized assessment, and decide your next steps. Your survey may just be a benchmark for you, or a wake-up call to seek professional mental health support. |
| | The Bureau of Infectious Diseases has asked healthcare providers to work with their local health department to submit influenza A/B-positive specimens (via RT-PCR or rapid molecular testing) to the ODH Public Health Laboratory for confirmatory testing and subtyping. Although seasonal flu activity in Ohio is currently low, CDC requests continued testing to maintain situational awareness and monitor for novel influenza strains. |
| | In a very short amount of time, telehealth encounters have become an everyday occurrence. This episode of Med Board Pulse, a podcast from the State Medical Board of Ohio, highlights key aspects of Ohio's laws and Medical Board rules that have been put in place to keep patients safe. The podcast also discusses some of the ways the board has seen providers depart from the standard of care when treating patients via telehealth. |
