Abstract

Seattle Children's Hospital (SCH) currently offers an advanced practice provider (APP) fellowship program for general medical providers, but no such program has been offered by the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine. Recently, SCH has extended funding for an APP fellowship to the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine in order to improve APP retention and provide a more structured provider orientation. Two new-graduate Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioners (PMHNPs) have been hired into fellowship positions. The purpose of this Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) project was to facilitate the development of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship program for APPs at SCH by developing key recommendations and resources for program planning and implementation.
