NPCSI: Pediatric Acute Care Nurse Practitioner

Students using a simulation human

 

All students in the Pediatric Acute Care Nurse Practitioner specialty are required to attend one* mandatory on-campus Clinical Skills Intensive (CSI) provided by the USA Simulation Program.

The clinical skills intensive provides hands-on instruction for common advanced practice assessments and procedures pertinent to the pediatric acute care scope of practice.  Students will attend when enrolled in MCN 558 and MCN 571.

Students must sign-up to attend one session and can select their preferred session on a first come, first serve basis. Simulation will contact students with information via JagMail on how to sign-up three months prior to the scheduled dates. 

Please note the dates are for Clinical Skills Intensives only. The track coordinator may provide orientation dates, which are separate from CSI and Simulation.
