Apc Fellow Intrauma/Emergency General Surgery/Surgical Intensive Care

We are offering a 12-month post-graduate program for Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners interested in advanced training in Trauma, Emergency General Surgery and Surgical ICU, with a start date of June 2024.

The HealthPartners Advanced Practice Clinician (APC) Fellowship at Regions Hospital, a Level 1 Adult and Pediatric Trauma Center, engages APC learners in extensive training within the core services of Trauma, Emergency General Surgery and Surgical Intensive Care, as well as required rotations in specialty areas deemed essential for proficiency. Responsibilities include performing histories and physicals, formulating an assessment and plan, and providing necessary treatments and procedures. All work is supervised by an attending physician or APC.

Through extensive simulation and procedural skills training in HealthPartners Simulation Center, as well as lectures delivered by experienced clinicians, didactic sessions compliment the diverse rotations and hands on experiences, offering the APC Fellow the opportunity to develop clinical competence and confidence, critical thinking, interprofessional collaboration and professional growth. This helps APCs successfully integrate into practice at an accelerated rate compared to on-the-job training.

At HealthPartners, you will find a warm, diverse group of people who are committed to helping our patients – and each other. We foster an inclusive environment that encourages new ways of thinking, celebrates differences, and recognizes hard work. We’re also committed to living our values. This means you can expect us to be your partner and treat you with dignity and respect. Join our team and make good happen!
