Clinical work parallels the classroom-based coursework to prepare for entry to the profession of advanced practice nursing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Value Will the Placement Team Provide?<\/strong>The Placement Team will assist and collaborate with you in handling the logistics, allowing you to focus on the coursework and the core competencies that will propel your placement experience.&nbsp; As an active participant in the placement process, providing referrals from your local community increases your chances of securing quality sites and preceptors. Networking within your placement site will help you create professional connections that can often lead to future placement and employment opportunities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How Does the Clinical Placement Process Work?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Shortly after enrollment, we will introduce you to your dedicated Placement Coordinator who will share the placement intake form, initiating the placement process.<\/p>\n<p>The Placement Team will collaborate with you to secure quality placement sites and preceptors.

The course faculty will identify when you can start clinical.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the Placement Experience Like?<br \/>\n<\/strong>During the placement experience, you will have access to faculty and other resources to help you successfully complete the rotation. The faculty will also be available to mentor and support you throughout the rotation if you have any specific questions about the provision of care, procedures, patient interactions, and general proficiencies. At the end of the placement rotation, you and your preceptor will review the requirements, complete evaluations, and officially end the placement rotation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When Will I Receive My Placement Details?<br \/>\n<\/strong>You\u2019ll receive an email notification from your Placement Coordinator approximately 30 days prior to your clinical rotation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Can I Expect on My First Day of Clinicals?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Clinical orientation is different for each site, but you can expect to complete the clinicals clearances and learn about the appropriate dress codes and the necessary clinical tools prior to starting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Are My Responsibilities as a Student in a Clinical Rotation?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Your responsibilities during the clinical rotations include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reviewing the objectives for fulfilling the clinical requirements<\/li>\n<li>Reviewing the existing clinical protocols and Marymount University\u2019s protocols with your preceptor<\/li>\n<li>Documenting all clinical encounters<\/li>\n<li>Ensuring that you are always under the supervision of your preceptor<\/li>\n<li>Review your evaluation with your preceptor<\/li>\n<li>Evaluate your clinical experience<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What Can I Expect from My Preceptor?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Your preceptor is your on-site role model and will help you develop as a nurse practitioner during your clinical rotation. They will:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bridge the gap between theory and actual practice<\/li>\n<li>Orient you to the practice setting (key personnel, organization, and institutional policies)<\/li>\n<li>Help you plan clinical assignments<\/li>\n<li>Provide one-on-one supervision and daily feedback<\/li>\n<li>Review and co-sign all documentation in the clinical records<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How Should I Prepare For Clinicals?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You are not alone in preparing for clinicals!
