Preceptor Information and Orientation
Welcome Preceptors! This page will help orient you to the role of clinical precepting for the 萝莉社School of Nursing Graduate Programs. Thank you for the generous service you provide for our students. You are our most valuable resource.
Preceptor Statement
Preceptors are practitioners who assist course responsible faculty and provide direct teaching to students appropriate to the course and program objectives. Preceptors for clinical specializations may include both advanced practice nurses (APRNs) and non-nurse practitioners (usually physicians). Physician Assistants (PA)s can not precept APRN students per KSBN regulations at this time.
