Just completed my LAST careplan!! That is such a good feeling, seems like I was just trying to do my first one? I found out two of my clinical days are "field trips" to observe APRNs and attend an inservice/training day. The last day we don't work on the floor, it's our comprehensive evaluation. That leaves one more clincal day!! One test, and a final!!

What exactly is a preceptorship? We didn't do those at our school.

SunshineDaisy, ASN, RN · Apr 28, 2013

They liken it to an internship. We have to do 120 hours with a preceptor at the hospital. We give our top 3 choices of where we want to work (ICU, L&D, ER...) and our teacher tries to get us in one of them. You have a teacher liaison who gets your preceptor info and you call them and get their schedule. So like I am preceptoring in L&D. I work whatever shift my preceptor has and and do everything for 12 hours with her.
