Fellowship Details:
The Johns Hopkins Hospital Pediatric Intensive Care Unit RN Fellowship Program is a customized 14-week competency-driven, immersive clinical and educational experience. The goal of this program is focused on providing professional nurses with a minimum of one year of practice with the adult or pediatric population to pursue their desire to become a pediatric ICU nurse. This program will teach the participant everything needed to become a successful pediatric ICU nurse. Participants will work closely with coordinators, unit educators, clinical experts, preceptors, faculty, and multidisciplinary team members. Courses are designed around a blended-learning curriculum, which combines a variety of teaching methods including: Web-based learning, lectures, skills practice, case studies, reflective practice, simulation, and clinical immersion with preceptorship. All course work and part of precepted time will occur during daytime hours prior to transitioning to rotating day/night or permanent night shift.
