Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner - Integrated Substance Use Disorder Training Program

The Massachusetts General Hospital seeks a full-time nurse practitioner for a one-year training program in Addiction Medicine starting in June 2025. This program, the Integrated Substance Use Disorder Training Program (ISTP), is a new training fellowship that aims to train nurse practitioners, psychologists, and social workers in team-based addiction care, especially for under-served and diverse communities.

The Nurse Practitioner Fellow will work with other ISTP trainees to provide inter-disciplinary care for people with substance use disorders in a community-based health center setting. The training program will provide clinical experience in a variety of placements including an inpatient addiction consult service, a low-threshold walk-in clinic, and outpatient dual-diagnosis programs for adolescents and adults. Training and mentorship will be provided by experienced addiction practitioners who are faculty of this program.
