The programs are designed to expand the knowledge and skills new graduate (within 18 months of program completion) APPs acquire during their graduate or doctoral training. UCSF APP fellows are full-time salaried employees with health care and vacation benefits. The programs run November 1 to October 31 annually.</p> <h3>UCSF Surgical and Critical Care Nurse Practitioner Fellowship</h3> <p>The UCSF Surgical and Critical Care Advanced Practice Provider (APP) Fellowship was the first critical care NP fellowship in California, and the first surgical NP fellowship in the country to earn Accreditation with Distinction, the highest recognition awarded by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). The program has expanded to include Physician Assistants and is in its tenth cohort. It is supported by the UCSF Office of Advanced Practice Providers, UCSF Medical Center, and the UCSF School of Nursing. In March of 2024, it was awarded its first Accreditation with Distinction through the ANCC鈥檚 new credential, Advanced Practice Provider Fellowship Accreditation (APPFA). The program accepts Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants.</p> <p><strong>For more information:</strong>聽<a href="https://npfellowship.ucsf.edu/about-the-program" target="_blank">npfellowship.ucsf.edu/about-the-program</a>聽<br/> <strong>Contact and questions:</strong>聽<a href="mailto:surgNPfellowship@ucsf.edu">surgNPfellowship@ucsf.edu</a></p> <h3>UCSF Cancer Services Nurse Practitioner Fellowship</h3> <p>The聽UCSF Cancer Services Nurse Practitioner Fellowship聽is midway through its first cohort and will be applying for ANCC accreditation in 2023.
