How to Use The PA Bible
- We recognize some of the topics fit into multiple subjects, but we kept it simple by only putting each topic in one place in the workbook. You can find each topic in the appendix if it isn't where you instinctively think it would be.
- Some topics may not have enough room to put everything in that you learn. We recommend putting in the information that is harder to remember, and not writing what you already know. This will help to ensure that your individual workbook doesn't become overcrowded or busy.
- There are "empty" boxes within the workbook that are intended for the reader to draw or fill in that information, again this helps with recollection and learning.
- There is a section at the end of each chapter to put the most commonly used medications within each subject.
- There are also lined pages at the end of each subject so that you can add any subjects or information that you feel are important but that aren't specifically on the PANCE blueprint.
