We have rotations in critical care, hospice and palliative care, administration and leadership development as well as elective time. You will receive training in transitions of care in both hospital follow up clinics and transitional care at our skilled nursing facility. We will have ultrasound guided central line and advanced airway training during orientation for the fellowship to also include hands on training in ventilator management.

The fellows will receive a competitive salary to include all University benefits. Applicants should have a demonstrated commitment to diversity and equal opportunity.
