What to Expect!

In exchange for a 12-month paid service commitment, as employees of the community health center, PMHNP graduates including new hires on or after 7/1/24 will receive preceptorship, clinical supervision of prescriptive practice, and weekly didactic trainings and grand rounds to enhance their knowledge and enrich their experience.

PMHNP students will receive preceptorship and hands on community experience that will increase their knowledge and skill of providing psychiatric mental health services in a community health center (CHC). Students will receive a stipend for their participation in the Fellowship.

A Community Health Center (CHC) is defined as a health center located in Massachusetts, operated by an organization that meets the criteria to qualify as a Federal Qualified Health Center (FQHC) or a hospital-licensed health center. CHCs that serve diverse communities, rural communities, or are in a federally designated Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) or a Mental Health Professional Shortage Area are strongly encouraged to apply.
