Brooke Andersen MSN, ACGNP-BC, University of Maryland Medical Center R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center, Senior Clinical Program ManagerA PP Critical Care Team, Co-Director of the NP Critical Care Fellowship.
I began my carrer at the Shock Trauma Center (STC) in 2006 as a Trauma Team NP. In 2011 I switched roles and began working in the Multi-trauma ICU and in 2012 I took the position of Clinical Program manager for the APP STC Critical Care Group. STC has opened two new critical care units, the Critical Care Resuscitation Unit (CCRU) and the Lung Rescue Unit (LRU). These units are staffed with an APP 24/7. I have helped open these units and continue to work clinically in the CCRU, LRU and Multi-trauma ICU. I coordinate NP educational rotations at STC and UMMC. I helped to design and implement the NP Critical Care Fellowship Program in 2009 and am currently co-director. To date we have had nine cohorts and 19 graduates of the fellowship program. UMMC and STC have integrated key components of the Critical Care Fellowship Program into the orientation program for incoming APPs. Included are simulation and skills lab that I have helped to design and teach on a weekly basis. In collaboration with the Critical Care Lead team, we have designed and implemented a weeklong Critical Care Bootcamp that is held quarterly and attended by all new critical care APPs. With UMMCs growing ECMO program I have led the development of a two-day multidisciplinary ECMO course that is held four times a year. During the pandemic, the LRU has expanded from a six-bed unit to a 30 bed COVID ECMO unit, I have led the STC APP team to staff this unit. Currently in the University of Maryland Doctoral of Nursing Practice Program, expected graduation in May 2023.
