NP Residency Program
Welcome to CPCMG’s Nurse Practitioner Residency Program
Children’s Primary Care Medical Group is excited to launch their Nurse Practitioner Residency Program, a 12-month educational program for recently graduated nurse practitioners.
If you have passion for pediatrics, then this program is for you. As the only nurse practitioner residency program in Southern California focused on pediatrics, we offer a unique opportunity to strengthen your clinical expertise in pediatric primary care.
Our curriculum will equip you with the knowledge and skills to manage the complex medical, developmental, and behavioral health needs of infants, children, and adolescents within a multicultural and socioeconomically diverse population in San Diego and southern Riverside counties.
Our Mission
To provide nurse practitioner graduates with an additional year of intensive training and a team-based approach to pediatric primary care with structured support.
Our Vision
The CPCMG NP residency program will provide a comprehensive pediatric medical facility aimed at guiding the top FNP and PNP residents through their first year. We seek to train you in a high-performance model of care. We are proud to be leaders in the implementation of an integrated behavior health program in a pediatric care home. CPCMG offers a team-based approach to the care, competency in hands on skill learning, resiliency in the workplace, then sustainability and mastery in one’s clinical practice. We choose to improve patient care, the health system, and the health outcomes for all our patients. We believe this begins with the next generation of NPs.
