I am desperately trying to find a potential FNP perceptor in St. Louis, MO. After countless searches, phone calls, and e-mails I am unable to find anyone. I am required to find a potential perceptor prior to registering for my first NP course. This is incredibly difficult since my clinical courses don't start for another ten months. I will be attending Chamberlain online for my FNP.
PLEASE HELP! Any suggestions would be appreciated or if anyone knows a potential perceptor in St. Louis.
Thanks to all!!

Are you allowed to do any of your clinicals out of town or out of state? I ended up having a 2 hour commute for my primary placement and did one of my other clinicals in another state altogether during vacation breaks during the year.
We can go to Illinois if need be. At this point, I am not sure where I will need to go. It is nearly impossible to find someone willing to say yes almost a year in advance. I have been in contact with Chamberlain regarding this but keep getting told I must find a potential preceptor and site prior to registering for my prerequisites/core courses.
I have not given up the search. However, I am afraid I won't find someone prior to December.
Thank you so much for responding and sharing your struggle.
