Why Precept an NP Student

We need well-prepared NP clinicians!
If your office is considering hiring an NP, it can be a great way to "test the waters" relatively risk free and you can get an honorarium for doing it!
Sharing your knowledge and experience through teaching can be very rewarding.
Precepting can help you stay up-to-date on clinical information and resources.
NP students can assist in patient education development.
NP students can help document patient histories.
Patients often love working with students because they can take more time with them.
Patients are often impressed that the site is a "teaching facility."
Nursing schools often provide incentives to precepting including: Access to school resources (Sports, theater, Up-To-Date, Epocrates...), adjunct faculty status, access to CE, opportunities to to take courses, and more. Ask us about preceptor incentives!
You may be able to earn accreditation credit for precepting.
It feels good to give back! After all, someone precepted you!
