Does your NP program conduct site visits?

I'm currently in a FNP program where the faculty visits students once a semester while in their clinical rotation. The instructors watch you interview pt, obtain history, perform physical exam, assess and plan treatment. I was telling some fellow coworkers (also NP students) about this and was surprised to hear that their respective schools did not conduct site visits. I was just curious to see if any of you guys have to endure this nerve-wracking ordeal, lol!!

    My school does this in a different manner. I'm in an online program and our "site visit" consists of a face to face computer or phone interaction with myself, a school faculty member, and my preceptor. This is my first semester of clinical so my site visit hasn't happened yet but I'm certain we aren't expected to take our laptops or computers in the patient room. I wish you luck, I would feel stressed out about that as well!

    In orientation, the associate dean said these would happen, but I'm over halfway through my clinical semester and it hasn't yet. I'm not sure if that's because I have to go to campus and do all this for a checkoff or not. I'm assuming that since we do that and it's the first clinical, she may have been referring to later clinicals where that isn't automatically part of the grading for the semester(as in written as a percentage in the syllabus).

    Yes, it's a general expectation that twice per semester individuals in my program would be observed during a patient interaction
