Ambulatory Care RN Preceptor

Help new nurses succeed

Want to help new or transitioning nurses feel confident and supported? The Ambulatory Care RN Preceptor Program trains RNs to become effective preceptors—trusted mentors who guide others in clinical settings. Preceptors do more than teach—they:

Strengthen teamwork and build trust
Help create a safe, welcoming work environment
