Thank you for the great info. I am moving to AZ from IL, presently taking refresher course for RN online (Arizona license), any suggestions where I can find Nurse Preceptor in Phoenix area? I need 120 clinical hours. According to my refresher course . Clinical assignments should be completed in 8 weeks. Clinical rotations are unpaid rotations designed to meet the goals and objectives of the course. Your employer may function as your preceptor; however, you are not functioning in a paid position. Hospital orientations, which are not clinical in nature, are not considered part of the clinical hours. Skills labs and hospital in-services, which are clinical in nature, can be used as clinical hours but may not exceed sixteen hours total. I called several hospitals and I was told that they have contract with local colleges for the Nursing students and RN preceptors are not available...I would be very glad if I can find here some tips or help/suggestion? Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Natalia
