Preceptor Programs

Published

Is this something only a few nursing programs do?

I have only found 2 preceptor programs in my area..and both were 80 miles away..one was thru a university the other thru a teaching hospital.

If none of the nursing programs around me offer this..could I ask one of the nearby hospitals if they would be interested in allowing me to become a student nurse or something similar?

I'd still call programs directly and speak to them.

I know in my program, for the last 6 months we work one-on-one with the same RN 25 - 30 hours a week.

that would be amazing and exactly what I want!!! 2 12 hour shifts just isnt enough..yes it gives me a glimpse but not much more than that.

I plan on calling all of the programs tomorrow and asking them.
