Our APN Fellowship Program
The Advanced Practice Nurse Fellowship Program at Atlantic Health Morristown Medical Center is designed to develop highly competent entry-to-practice nurse practitioners with a distinguished level of knowledge, professionalism and leadership, and prepare them to practice as skilled acute and critical care providers within a multidisciplinary team.
We provide the infrastructure to support novice advanced practice nurses (APNs) by providing didactic, simulation and hands-on clinical experience with incorporated mentorship and professional development to allow for successful transition to independent practice.
The program builds in complexity. We begin with clinical rotations in areas such as infectious disease, nephrology and surgery, and build to rotations in the intensive care unit (ICU) for hands-on clinical experience. Didactic days include topics such as antibiotic stewardship, critical care ethics, having crucial conversations and 12 lead EKG interpretation taught by the program’s faculty, key stakeholders and subject matter experts.
Under the continued support and guidance of preceptors and mentors, our APN fellows complete specific rotation aims and objectives. APN fellow evaluations are ongoing and include both formative and summative evaluations.
