This campus event gives our students real-life experience, allowing them to be prepared for that moment.\u201d Representatives from KentuckyOne Health, Appalachian Regional Healthcare, and Jellico Community Hospital visited Cumberlands\u2019 campus to assist with the event. Representatives hosted unofficial interviews with PA students, during which they assessed the students\u2019 r\u00e9sum\u00e9s, appearance and poise, skill presentation, delivery and language. \u201cOur students are fortunate to have Kentucky and Tennessee medical leaders give their time and experience, helping them be well prepared for their entry into the work force,\u201d said Campbell. The University of the Cumberlands Physician Assistant Program is ARC-PA accredited and started accepting applications beginning April 1. For more information, visit ucumberlands.edu\/health-science."}
