Interested in Becoming Part of Our Team?

The University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC) has a novel CRNA Preceptor/Mentorship Program for our newly hired CRNAs. This program is individually tailored to meet their professional needs through orientation and beyond. An experienced mentor is paired with each newly hired CRNA, and the majority of our CRNAs have completed specialized preceptor education. We believe in building successful, long term relationships!

As our CRNA division continues to grow, we are seeking qualified applicants dedicated to advancing the art and science of anesthesia in our challenging and rewarding academic environment. If you have any questions, please contact Matthew D’Angelo, Chief, Division of Nurse Anesthesia
