so frustrated about setting up NP clinical

[treeye]

I love hospital work and trying to set up NP clinical with hospitalists in the hospital I work. The hospital is a small rural hospital and the hospitalists are in partnership with a big hospital. I tried to reach the administrator for their group for the past month and finally got to meet with her but she has to check with our HR director for the affiliation agreement and will call me today (of course she did not). I am not sure whether she is just passing the buck or not. The HR director is on leave but the front desk lady has been working on the affiliation agreement for the past month but nothing has been finished.

I have to start clinical in two weeks and I'm so worried and sick to my stomach that I want to cry. I am thinking about reaching the executive director overseeing HR department, do you think it will help? any advices and recommendations for improving the process appreciated.

I'll be using typhon once I find a preceptor. Until then..... nada.

I live in MD and have been looking for a pediatric preceptor. I have had to sit out the last two semesters because I can not find one. Anyone know one willing to help. Although I am in Montgomery County, I am willing to drive anywhere in MD. Please HELP!!!!!

This website is not a good resource for finding preceptors.

Have you tried joining a professional facebook page for the NP specialty you are in? If you have nursing experience, I find that the people on these professional facebook groups are more willing to help.
