Advanced Practice

At Geisinger, caring goes well beyond exceptional healthcare; it’s also about the excellent quality of our people and the culture of dignity and respect they strive for each and every day. From the small moments celebrating our employees’ birthdays and achievements, to honoring those who demonstrate Geisinger’s principles with a North Star Award, excellence is embedded in our culture.

As a member of our Advanced Practice Team, which includes Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists and Certified Nurse Midwives, you’ll work side by side with our providers, receiving the respect you deserve so you can deliver excellent patient care. We’re continuously striving for a workplace where you can be at your best and have a career with a lasting impact.

Advanced Practice Nursing Council

A decade ago, we established the Advanced Practice Nursing Council, to ensure Advanced Practice team members have a voice among the organization leadership. The Council’s primary goal is to foster excellence in the Advanced Practice team and work with upper administration on system issues.

Advanced Practice Nursing Council gives team members a voice among leadership.

Nursing leadership encourages and supports increased professional growth through continuing education and specialty certification. To demonstrate the commitment to this level of professionalism, there are campus specific reward and recognition programs to support certification review, certification testing and acknowledgment of the achievement.

Because of Geisinger’s tuition reimbursement program, it was made possible for me to advance my education and obtain a post-master’s certificate as an adult-gerontology acute care nurse practitioner. I am now duel certified in family practice and acute care.
