ARC-PA Coronavirus Update – Site Visits 2022

Please review the January 21, 2022 updated statement from ARC-PA – Site Visits 2022

Dear PA Educators and Stakeholders:

Due to the current national surge in the Omicron variant of COVID-19, many of us are faced with shifting work priorities and travel restrictions. The ARC-PA has been carefully monitoring this surge and its potential impact on the plannned in-person site visits, expected to commence in February 2022. After serious consideration, the ARC-PA has decided to continue with virtual site visits for those programs scheduled for visits between February and June 2022. Programs with site visits during this timeframe will receive individualized information about preparation for the virtual site visit.

The ARC-PA will continue to monitor the pandemic surge and will let programs know as soon as possible if in-person site visits can resume in August 2022. As always, we thank you for your commitment to quality in PA education!

Sincerely,

Sharon L. Luke, EdD, PA-C
Executive Director, ARC-PA
