Second Year PA students are halfway done with their clinical year! In honor of their first OSCE, here’s a fun case: A 25-year-old man presents to the emergency department after diving to hit a ball while playing spikeball. He reports landing on his outstretched right arm with his shoulder abducted and externally rotated. He immediately felt a “pop” followed by severe right shoulder pain and has been unable to move his arm since the injury. On examination, he is holding his right arm slightly abducted and externally rotated while supporting it with his opposite hand. There is a noticeable loss of the normal rounded contour of the shoulder with prominence of the acromion. Sensation is mildly decreased over the lateral aspect of the shoulder. Radial pulse is 2+, and capillary refill is normal. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis? A. Acromioclavicular (AC) joint separation B. Rotator cuff tear C. Anterior glenohumeral shoulder dislocation D. Clavicle fracture E. Proximal humerus fracture taken in Tufts University School of Medicine by @tuftspa

Thinking about PA school? Hear from someone who’s been there and came back to teach. Jessica Lebowitz, PA18, Tufts PA alum and faculty member, shares advice for prospective PA students, insights into Tufts’ program, and the qualities future physician assistants need to succeed in clinical practice. What brought you back to Tufts to teach? “Tufts has always been a welcoming environment, from when I was a student to when I returned as adjunct faculty to teach labs and other workshops. This was a huge factor in my decision to transition into education and to return to Tufts specifically." What qualities do you hope to instill in future physician assistants? “I hope to instill the following qualities in future PAs as they prepare for clinical practice: strong communication with healthcare team members, responsibility to patients, accountability, dedication, and aspirations across various fields of medicine.” What advice would you give prospective PA students, and what makes the Tufts PA community special? “My advice would be to learn as much as you can about the profession before applying. I recommend seeking out experiences that allow you to work alongside PAs to truly understand the role and how we collaborate within the healthcare team. It’s also important to remember your purpose and the ‘why’ behind your passion for medicine. The Tufts PA community is supportive and collaborative, and since the nature of the PA profession is teamwork, that mindset is strongly encouraged throughout the educational experience.” Read the full Q&A and discover what makes the Tufts PA community special: go.tufts.edu/jessica by @tuftspa
