The Advanced Practice Provider (APP) Advisory Board in conjunction with the APP Onboarding Committee created an onboarding experience for new hires to have the resources, tools, provider community and professional opportunities needed to thrive in their career at UCSF Health.
This onboarding experience consists of five two-hour sessions with guest speakers, opportunities to socialize with fellow APPs and a forum for questions that will be conducted in combination of virtual and in-person sessions. Zoom sessions are available to all of the APPs at UCSF as well as those who manage APPs.
