What is a clinical preceptor?

A clinical preceptor is someone responsible for a supervised clinical experience who allows preceptees to apply knowledge, understanding, and critical thinking into practice. They are vital to acclimating preceptees to the unit/specialty, their role, staff, and the organization as a whole.
Preceptors provide valuable teaching and learning experiences, role model safe patient care, apply evidence-based practice, and assess competencies.
Preceptoring is a unique specialty with its own core of knowledge and expertise associated with competent and engaged preceptors. Clinical preceptors are essential in every role and specialty. In academia, they equip students with necessary role competencies and skill training. Within healthcare organizations, experienced clinicians serving as preceptors continue to help expand upon best practices and provide the requisite orientation & onboarding for both newly licensed graduates and experienced clinicians who are new to the organization.
