firstinfamily, RN 790 Posts Has 33 years experience. Nov 1, 2014 OK, I need clarification. You are a new grad(not grand) on a sub acute unit, and the preceptor is on a power trip?? What is your definition of "power trip?" Is the preceptor degrading you in public, telling you that you are not doing things right etc? Please give more info!!! It could be that the preceptor did not want to do the precepting but was assigned to do it. That can make a huge difference in how the orientation process goes. Give a few more details please!!

I don't want to cause waves but I a old (39) and don't have the patience for people who are supposed to be helping me, talking down to me. The CNA's say she's like that. She knows more than anyone.
