SUNY Moves to Replace LICH Residency with PAs and LPNs
SUNY plans to end Long Island College Hospital residency programs replacing 42 residents with 20 PAs and LPNs. Doctors warn PAs and LPNs cannot substitute physicians and fear increased liability and reduced care quality. James Karkenny of Pitts Management oversees staffing while SUNY seeks accreditation withdrawal and faces a TRO and a looming cost crisis.
