The Colorado Academy of PAs offered its first PA leader of the year award this year. CAPA board members elected to add this inaugural award to honor PAs in our state that have proven to be collaborative leaders. It was my pleasure to nominate my colleague, and friend, Meagan Hillman, MBA, PA-C for this award. The PA Leader Award nominating critic included:
Evidence of mutual respect and trust
Teamwork in providing care to patients
Team, community or professional leadership
Evidence of team community services
And is “awarded to a PA that works collaboratively with the healthcare team and promotes PA practice.”
