Wyoming - Nurse Practitioner Position     (posted) 04-24-14
==========================================================================
Position: #2110 Opening: Clinical Assistant/Associate Professor, Family 
Nurse Practitioner
(FNP) program

Looking for an adventure? Looking for an opportunity to make a big 
impact on rural health?
Consider Wyoming, the "Equality State" -- the 9th largest and least 
populated state in the U.S.,
where health-related scholarship opportunities abound, and faculty can 
impact clinical practice
and policy at the state level and beyond.

The Fay W. Whitney School of Nursing is seeking an innovative individual 
to join our faculty.
Qualified applicants will have a doctoral degree in nursing or a related 
field. The Doctor of
Nursing Practice (DNP) is preferred. If the doctorate is in a related 
field, the applicant must
have a master's degree in nursing. The applicant must hold national 
certification as nurse
practitioner (family nurse practitioner preferrred) and be eligible for 
nurse practitioner
licensure in Wyoming. The applicant also must have evidence of clinical 
scholarship trajectory
and at least 2 years of practice as a nurse practitioner in primary care 
practice. Preference will
be given to applicants who have teaching experience related to primary 
care practice.

This clinical track position will involve clinical scholarship, 
on-campus teaching, online
teaching, advanced practice, and academic service. The successful 
candidate will have a
background in clinical scholarship and be able to conduct practice-based 
scholarship, ideally
focused on rural primary care. The faculty member will also advise DNP 
students and provide
service to the school, college, university, state, and profession.

The Fay W. Whitney School of Nursing is CCNE accredited and offers both 
undergraduate
and graduate programs, including a master's nurse educator program and a 
DNP program.
All programs are focused on nursing roles critical to Wyoming and the 
region. Our nurse
practitioner graduates serve in much needed primary care health settings 
and many of the
counties in Wyoming are classified as health professions shortage areas.

The University of Wyoming is located in Laramie, a town of 30,000 in the 
heart of the Rocky
Mountain West. Wyoming is investing in its university, helping to make 
it a leader in academics,
research, and outreach. The university has state-of-the-art facilities 
and is a cultural center for
the state. Located on a high plain between the Laramie and Snowy Range 
mountains,
Laramie has more than 300 days of sunshine a year and is near year-round 
outdoor activities
that include skiing, hiking, camping, bicycling, fishing and climbing. 
The community provides
the advantages of a major university and a distinctive identity as an 
important city in a frontier
state.  Laramie is near many of Colorado's major cities and university 
communities
(Fort Collins: 1 hour; Boulder: 1.5 hours; Denver: 2 hours; Colorado 
Springs; 4 hours).

The University of Wyoming is an Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative 
Action employer.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employkment 
without regard to race,
color, religion, sex, national origin, disability or protected veteral 
status or any other
