A Residency Program for Family Nurse Practitioners

Nicholson, Jason, Hemphill, Jean C., PhD 25 April 2023 (has links)
By 2034 there is predicted to be a shortage of between 17,800 and 48,000 physicians in primary care, (Association of American Medical Colleges, 2021). Nurse practitioners have proven to be a versatile tool in helping to bridge this gap in health care. As the need for family nurse practitioners grows so also the need for quality educational experiences for these providers must continue to expand. Currently, employment turnover rates for family nurse practitioners are twice those of physicians, (Barnes, 2015). Formal transitions into advanced practice, such as residency programming have been found to ease new family nurse practitioners into practice. However, few residency programs exist to help aid in this transition, (Flinter, 2005, 2012). This project aims to develop a program that provides educational opportunities for post-graduate family nurse practitioners as they transition to advanced practice nursing. The project will develop a nurse practitioner residency program specific to the needs of this region guided by the Social Determinants of Health. The program will provide new graduate family nurse practitioners with an opportunity to take part in a year-long post-graduate residency program. Providing an intense on-the-job training experience from veteran practitioners. This program will then be written into a grant to help fund the project in our region.
