Are there independent LPN preceptors?

[Twillight Ravensoul]

Two of my co-workers and I are in a private nursing school. Fortunately, everything is legit but due to Covid they have gotten creative with clinicals. We could either fly to Texas and do our clinicals or do a preceptorship at our job. We were on track to finish up on time when Covid cases started turning up at our job. Now everything is chaotic, people are quitting, and they're saying they're too short staffed to fulfill our preceptorship. We could still fly to Texas...next year with the class behind us but I don't want to forget my skills or what I've learned. Are there independent preceptors or places that one can go to complete their clinicals in NC?
