Title: An analysis of the number of patients that can be attended to Family Healthcare Associates

Thesis: Until there is an expansion of the Family Healthcare Associates facility and an increase in the number of doctors and physician assistants, the number of residents attended to in one day should not be the current seventy five; it should be less.

1. Purpose

0. To determine the number of patients that can be effectively attended to in one day by a two-doctor facility (Michael Muscari and Anthony Flaim) and several Physician Assistants.

0. To redefine the protocol of the health center (Family Healthcare Associates) such that only a comprehensive diagnosis (collectively done by Muscari, Flaim and one PA in separate sittings) is deemed accurate.

0. To improve the rapport and health services offered by Family Healthcare Associates

1. Problems

1. The Physician’s Assistants at Family Healthcare Associates rush patients through, only seeing them for what is currently wrong.

1. The PAs do not look at patient histories; they never remember what medications they are currently taking.

1. The doctors do not see the patients at all, only the PA’s see the patients- which is not the way it is supposed to be done.

1. Solution.

1. To do a total overhaul of how the clinic is run

1. Cutting down the number of patients seen per day so that physician assistants and doctors can better focus on taking good care of the ones they do see as opposed to rushing through.

1. Conclusion

1. Whenever a patient visits the Family Healthcare Facility, they should be predisposed to a full medical history examination, a full diagnosis and be treated with a care that will ensure they leave the facility in the best health possible.
