Advanced Practice Provider (APP)

APP students

Corewell Health Lakeland is dedicated to those wanting to further their education. Our Advanced Practice Provider (APP) Student Program helps place various types of APP students into clinical rotations and observations. We have placed hundreds of PA, NP, CRNA and CNM students with preceptors over the years. The APP Student Program boasts a 45% recruitment rate, meaning nearly half of the students who complete clinical rotations here, join the Corewell Health Lakeland team as APPs.

If you are currently an APP Student or planning to become one soon and are interested in completing a clinical rotation at Corewell Health Lakeland, we encourage you to connect with Trisha Blighton to explore the opportunities. To ensure a smooth onboarding process, and adequate time to secure preceptors, it’s recommended to reach out 6-12 months before your anticipated rotation start date.  Ready to apply for a rotation, complete the application using the link below.
