Every year from October 6-12, we celebrate National PA Week—a time dedicated to recognizing the invaluable contributions of Physician Assistants (PAs) across the country. This week is more than a celebration—it’s a heartfelt acknowledgment of the dedication, skill, and compassion that PAs bring to the healthcare field. 

National PA Week highlights the PA profession—one of the fastest growing in the healthcare industry. PAs are integral to our healthcare system, providing high-quality care in every practice setting and medical specialty. In rural areas, PAs are often the backbone of healthcare delivery. They provide essential medical services in regions where access to healthcare can be limited by bridging gaps in care, expanding access, and adapting to the needs of the community. During this week, we honor their commitment and the pivotal role they play in transforming patient care. 


Locum Tenens for Physician Assistants 

While National PA Week is a time to celebrate, it also serves as a reminder of the growing need for flexible and reliable healthcare solutions. Locum tenens providers are a critical part of that solution, ensuring uninterrupted, high-quality care when permanent staff aren’t available. At Hayes Locums, we understand the unique challenges healthcare facilities face, and we are committed to delivering top-tier locum tenens solutions to meet these needs.

At Hayes Locums, we are grateful for the PAs who partner with us to provide essential healthcare services where they are needed most.  Join us in celebrating the over 178,700 PAs who dedicate themselves to delivering quality care to patients and the communities they serve!Shape
