as a nurse practitioner-entrepreneur. With her unique background and experience, Lynn understands both the business side and the clinical side of this complicated issue.  

Lynn recognizes the rapidly growing NP and PA professions, the increased number of NP and PA schools, and the unmet need for preceptor sites. She recognizes the problem these issues are having on the NP profession. Whether change comes through a paradigm shift in NP schools, a reduction in barriers to precepting, incentives to precept, or changes within the profession, she is involved in the conversation and trying to be a positive change agent.  Lynn wants to help her beloved profession grow stronger and loves to support her fellow practitioners- whether in the clinical setting or in the business world.  Please follow her at Twitter for her medical and NP-related Tweets: https://twitter.com/LynnMcComas  or follow PreceptorLink on LinkedIn to see important posts and information. 

​Lynn still maintains some practice hours in the San Diego area because she still loves clinical practice and working with patients, but she dedicates herself 365 days/year to PreceptorLink®️! 

PreceptorLink® was built by the profession,

for the profession.
