Our Nursing Preceptor Success Program includes three modules that were created because Expert Preceptors Build Expert Nurses. We spent the last three years evaluating the key elements of the new nurse experience and incorporated feedback from preceptors, new nurses and over 200 nurse leaders throughout the state! We now are able to bring you these three easy-to-use and affordable online modules to enhance your current strategies for professional development and workforce retention.
Module 1 – The Role of the preceptor
Module 2 – Communication in the Preceptor Role
Module 3 – The Transition Process: Assessment to Evaluation
The Role of the Preceptor module introduces you to the preceptor roles such as role model, advocate, coach, evaluator and socializer. It also shows you how to appropriately use these roles with the new nurse. Also covered are the ethical, legal and regulatory issues in the health care industry. Finally, this module shares the need for self-care for the preceptor, identifying stressors and strategies to support
preceptors.
Communication in the Preceptor Role module takes into consideration all of the factors that influence communication. Learning styles, gender, generational issues and personality styles just to name a few.
This module gives you some different ideas on how to provide instruction, evaluation and feedback as well as a section on how to use feedback and evaluation effectively and not offensively. Communication tools for teamwork and collaboration are included as well as a section on how to manage conflict.
The Transition Process: Assessment to Evaluation covers just as the title describes; the process from beginning to end of the transition process. Included is P. Benner’s model on the transition from novice to expert as well as Marlene Kramer’s work on Reality Shock. Planning on a successful transition of the new nurse brings us to competency-based performance, quality and safety competencies, daily planning, communication and documentation and modifying plans; which are all covered in this module as well as how to effectively implement the plan. The last section covers the evaluation and performance feedback including some preferred guidelines which may be very helpful.
