SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 389
         WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
  join the Texas Academy of Physician Assistants and Texans across
  the state in celebrating March 18, 2019, as Physician Assistant
  Day at the Texas Capitol; and
 
         WHEREAS, Physician assistants are academically and
  clinically prepared medical professionals who diagnose illness,
  develop and manage treatment plans, and frequently serve as the
  principal health care provider; often patients' first point of
  contact, physician assistants are instrumental in providing
  quality, cost-effective, and accessible patient-centered health
  care; and
 
         WHEREAS, Vital members of the staff at hospitals and
  clinics, physician assistants play a vital role in helping
  patients understand their medical needs and in empowering them to
  become effective advocates for their own health; they are
  especially valuable contributors to quality health care outcomes
  in medically underserved and rural areas; and
 
         WHEREAS, Physician assistants have earned the public's
  respect for their dedication to the well-being and quality of
  life of their patients; it is truly fitting that a day be set
  aside to celebrate their countless contributions to the health
  and vitality of our state; now, therefore, be it
 
         RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 86th
  Legislature, hereby commend the state's physician assistants on
  their commitment to excellence in health care and extend to them
  best wishes for a productive and memorable Physician Assistant
  Day at the Texas Capitol; and, be it further
 
         RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared in
  honor of this special occasion.
