This opportunity supports California-located FNP and PA training programs approved under the Song-Brown Health Care Workforce Training Act to train primary care trainees for work in underserved communities. The stated strategies are to recruit and admit trainees predisposed and committed to practice in areas of unmet need, encourage graduates’ entry into such practice through counseling and placement, and provide preceptorships in areas of unmet need.
The program seeks to support primary care FNP and PA training that prepares trainees to work in underserved communities through recruitment and admission of service-oriented trainees, counseling and placement of graduates, and preceptorships in areas of unmet need.
The applicant operates an FNP or PA training program located in California. The FNP or PA training program is approved for funding under the Song-Brown Health Care Workforce Training Act. The program has procedures to identify, recruit, and admit trainees who are predisposed to practice in areas of unmet need and express that commitment. The program has counseling and placement activity intended to encourage graduates to enter practice in areas of unmet need. The program provides a preceptorship experience in an area of unmet need.
The evidence packet provides no formal scoring criteria or reviewer rubric. It is reasonable to infer that an application’s alignment with the three expressly required program strategies—service-oriented trainee recruitment and admission, counseling and placement, and preceptorships in areas of unmet need—will be central to a substantive assessment, but this is not a confirmed review standard.
