    Student wants advice about professor from Nurse Educatiors

    RNPATL replied to GoodyNurse2b's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    The preceptor must have an MSN right now. There has been some talk of requiring a higher terminal degree for preceptors, but it is difficult enough trying to find a qualified preceptor with an MSN....

    Conceptual Framework?

    RNPATL replied to Dakota28's topic in General Nursing
