Advanced ACP Fellowship in Urgent Care and Rural Health

The Carilion Clinic Department of Family and Community Medicine would like to offer a post-graduate Advanced Practice Fellowship Program for Physician Assistants (PAs) and Nurse Practitioners (NPs) in Urgent Care and Rural Health. This unique, intensive program will build upon the strength of our highly successful PA and NP practice already in place, combined with the largest and most effective family practice and urgent care practice in southwest Virginia. The fellowship will be a complement to the Urgent Care and Rural Health program, as NP and PA fellows will benefit from didactic and clinical experiences that mirror family medicine physician residency training.
Graduates of this one-year fellowship program will possess substantial skills, knowledge, and competencies required in the fields of urgent care, family medicine and rural health as the PA and NP professions continue to be ranked among the fastest growing career opportunities.
