CVS Nurse Practitioner

Hello all,

I am set to graduate next Summer and have started looking for positions. I plan to apply to a couple fellowships/residencies. I know I will not be ready to practice on my own when I graduate and need a solid educational transition to practice. If I do not get accepted into one of the programs, I am thinking about applying at CVS. For new NP grads that started their careers with CVS, how was it? How long did you train under a mentor before you were on your own?

Thanks in advance.

I did one of my clinical rotations at CVS - you are entirely on your own to not miss any red flags.  I believe the orientation is something like 6-8 shifts with a bit of online training for charting.  If you aren't certain of your skills yet, it may not be the best position for you.

Working at CVS is definitely not an option for me. Thank you for the response.
