The Cawley Collection

James Cawley, MPH, PA-C, professor in both the GW School of Public Health and Health Services and the GW School of Medicine and Health Sciences, and founder of the joint PA/MPH program at GW--the first of its kind in the country--had a compendium of his writings compiled by Advance for NPs & Pas, a trade publication for physician assistants (PAs) and nurse practitioners (NPs).

Articles on topics such as health care reform, the role of a physician assistant, and the growing differences between PAs and NPs, were included in the 13-page compendium that covers eight years of writing from Professor Cawley. The compendium coincides with Professor Cawley being named the recipient of the Eugene A. Stead Award of Achievement from the American Academy of Physician Assistants for his “unremitting efforts to increase understanding of the PA role in the US healthcare workforce.”
