Physician Assistant accused of crime and the illegal practice of medicine
Nevada law prohibits medical workers administer any medication, including injections. While the restriction had been largely was not until the arrest of an Assistant physician of 10 felony charges on allegations of "illegal practice of medicine" received media attention.
The Medical Assistant was arrested in 2009 in Las Vegas for the administration of Botox treatments in its role as an Assistant doctor under the direction of a physician. It was under the impression that she was simply doing what they do all physician assistants, and never crossed his mind that it can be practiced outside of their scope of practice as legislated by the Nevada State Board of medical examiners. His world was stopped crashing when she was charged with 10 felony charges on allegations of "illegal practice of medicine".
---------------------------------------------------------
It is a huge risk that take some medical assistants, especially when they are trained on the job without access to current information from a professional organization, such as the American Association of medical assistants, medical technologists, American or national Healthcareer Association; and have not received formal an accredited professional training institution training where faculty by experts trained to instruct the future medical assistants in what can and cannot do. This leaves open them to the hypothesis that while working under the umbrella of the doctor who taught them what to do are allowed do what is asked. However, this is a mistake.
The rule is that all medical workers, regardless of the amount of education, training and experience should realize that they are subject to certain laws and restrictions and can only practice within their specific scope of practice. For example, some States United States require assistants doctors have a special license from your State to expose patients to rays x other States special mandate rather than a medical assistant can manage certain types of needle injections, vaccines and testing for evidence of allergy or PPD Mantoux skin tests.
The Nevada State Board of medical examiners, in an emergency on September 18, 2009 meeting adopted a regulation to stop the medical assistants perform certain services, such as the administration of Botox cosmetic medicine. But the rules allow physician assistants give vaccines and influenza vaccines.Saturday, October 8, 2011

Do well, let's think about it this way: you're an effective multitasker who works well with people? Do you want to use organizational skills in the fast environment of a medical center, where could be handle everything from the daily management of a medical office, to interact and helping patients?
Physician assistant training that leads to the degrees and diplomas desired requires one or two years of training, to be eligible for the Medical Assistant certification exam to graduate successfully.There are distance programs available, however, there is a need to dedicate a full-time year of training, which is likely to be a lost year in revenues for you: will need to factor with the enrolment to determine its overall financial obligation.
