The Clinical Advisor Launches Video Site for Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants

NEW YORK, Feb. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Clinical Advisor, the most read medical journal for nurse practitioners and physician assistants, has launched a "best of the web" collection of medical videos on its website (www.ClinicalAdvisor.com).

"From the thousands of videos available on the Web, our experienced editorial staff has selected only those directly applicable to the busy primary-care provider," says editor Joe Kopcha. "The selection is constantly updated to provide users with the latest clinical information in a wide variety of health categories. Providing this service can help busy clinicians quickly and easily find videos that will enhance their practice."

The videos have been organized into the following categories that closely align with diseases that nurse practitioners and physician assistants treat every day: diabetes, cancer, heart disease, pediatrics, dermatology, geriatrics, asthma/allergy/immunology, pain, practice management, careers, legal/health policy, women's health, men's health, and infectious disease. Within each category the videos are further organized into news, expert interviews, meeting coverage, mechanism of action and patient information.

In addition to the staff picked videos, nurse practitioners and physician assistants will be able to upload their own videos or recommend a video to our staff for posting.  "Peer-to-peer education is such a valuable resource among clinicians," Mr. Kopcha says. "Users are encouraged to share their own expertise and experiences with their peers by posting their own videos directly to our website."
