The STAMPPed Initiative for Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Students

Nurs Educ Perspect. 2023 Dec 27. doi: 10.1097/01.NEP.0000000000001219. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAs the demand for nurse practitioners increases to meet health care needs, pathways to facilitate the transition into specialty advanced practice nursing education must be developed. The STudent Advisor/Mentorship Program for Pediatrics (STAMPPed) program was an innovative strategy established to support graduate nursing students with little to no pediatric clinical experience who demonstrated an interest in becoming pediatric nurse practitioners. The program provided structured guidance and support from experienced pediatric nursing faculty through monthly group meetings and the formulation of one-to-one student-faculty mentoring dyads. Mentees found the program to be helpful and foster supportive relationships.PMID:38147012 | DOI:10.1097/01.NEP.0000000000001219
