Palliative Care Nurse Practitioner Fellowship

Overview

This one-year, full-time, adult nurse practitioner (NP) fellowship is part of the Harvard Inter-professional Palliative Care Fellowship Program. The NP fellow will train with physicians, social work, pharmay, and other nurse practitioner fellows during the academic year that begins July 1.

The fellowship offers an extensive medical, psychosocial, communication and education curriculum taught by experienced and committed clinician-educators who are recognized nationally as experts in the field.

This NP fellowship has been designed to align with the HPNA Standards for Clinical Education (HPNA, 2015) and the Palliative Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice (ANA, 2021).
