Abstract
The project addresses fellowship programs for new graduate nurse practitioners. The goal is to determine if a nurse residency or fellowship program is beneficial in role transition as a new graduate nurse practitioner. Nurse practitioner residency or fellowship programs are typically 12 months in duration, have small cohort sizes of two to four trainees, and are composed of a combination of didactic educational content, clinical supervision, peer support and debriefing, and self-reflection The study utilizes a survey design to measure the impact of a nurse practitioner fellowship program versus a standard orientation period. The article concludes with barriers and recommendations to complete for future projects.
