NPCSI: Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

All students in the Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specialty are required to attend one* mandatory virtual Clinical Skills Intensive (CSI) provided by the USA Simulation Program.
The PMHNP CSI includes instruction in advanced practice mental health assessment and clinical reasoning practiced in a telemedicine setting with standardized patients. Students will attend when enrolled in CMN 548 and CMN 551.
Students must sign-up to attend one session and can select their preferred date 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. The sign-up process is done through Canvas. Students will not be able to sign up through email.
Please note the dates are for Clinical Skills Intensives only. The track coordinator may provide orientation dates, which are separate from CSI and Simulation.
