Nurse Practitioners from around the country are drawn to the Shock Trauma center for clinical rotations due to its unique position as the only free-standing trauma hospital in the world.

Clinical rotations are available with:

Trauma Admitting Teams
Trauma Neurosurgery

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
Soft Tissue Injury/Infection Surgery
Emergency General Surgery
Trauma Orthopaedics

Nurse Practitioner student rotations should be made in conjunction with a Nurse Practitioner training program. Contact the Clinical Program Manager to further explore training opportunities.

Current Nurse Practitioners who wish to further their training through a rotation at Shock Trauma should directly contact the Clinical Program Manager.

Licensure Requirements:

Nurses with licensure in one of the compact states may rotate through the program without any further licensure application.

Nurses from outside the compact states need to apply for a Maryland nursing license and obtain a temporary nursing license pending its approval.
