Hi Georgia......

I am a Nursing Student attending AUM( Auburn University Montgomery, AL) and graduating (with the Lord's grace) in May. I am considering pursuing a career in the Atlanta area after I graduate, but in the more here and now I want to complete my preceptor hours in the Atlanta area. I was wondering if anyone out there has any suggestions for good preceptor friendly hospitals in that area, or surrounding areas of the metro? I am also very open to any other suggestions or information you would like to share about Georgia Nursing!! Thank you in advance for your replies!!!!!!! :Melody:

I will be doing my preceptorship in the fall and based on what I have heard from others I would suggest :Emory, Crawford-Long, St. Josephs. It really depends on what area you are interested in also - Northside is the spot for OB, Egelston for peds, and Grady or Atlanta Medical for trauma.

Hope this helps :)

Thank you for your response. Are you going to have to locate your own preceptor, or is your school arranging that themselves?
