What Does a Nursing Preceptor Do?

The preceptor’s job is supervised practice in a real setting—not replacing faculty and not guaranteeing university approval.

A nursing preceptor is a licensed clinician who supervises a student during required clinical or practicum hours. Typical work includes orientation to the site, oversight of student participation in care, feedback, and the evaluations the university requires.

What the preceptor does not do

The preceptor does not replace faculty, rewrite program rules, or approve the arrangement for the school. Those remain university responsibilities.

If you still need help locating a clinician, tell PreceptorFinder what your program requires.

If you need help locating a preceptor after you understand your program’s rules, tell PreceptorFinder what your program requires.
