APRN/PA Scholars Program
The APRN/PA Scholars Program is an intensive one-year program geared towards educating advanced practice providers in the subspecialties of developmental behavioral pediatrics, mental health and complex care. With advanced training, advanced practice providers will be better able to diagnose, manage, co-manage, and refer as needed, children for developmental disabilities (including cerebral palsy, autism, and learning disabilities), medical complexities (including epilepsy, genetic abnormalities, neurological impairment, feeding and respiratory problems), and behavioral issues (including ADHD, anxiety, depression, and incontinence).
