Clinical experience is one of the most exciting parts of education at Allen College. Graduate students are required to have practiced as nurses and come with a wide range of backgrounds and experience. We rely on the student to help direct their clinical practicum. Students will be asked to assist in finding preceptors that will provide them the clinical experience they need. The College must assure that preceptors and clinical sites meet standards and requirements set by accreditors. The college will be responsible for ensuring students find preceptors. 本节概述了该过程. Please feel free to contact the clinical faculty with any questions or the Clinical Coordinator, Dr. 阿什利·奥伦迪克(Ashley.Ollendieck@zhongxinboligang.com)，他可以提供建议.

导师批准流程

• 一旦学生们找到了愿意上课的老师, the student will submit preceptor contact and credential information to their faculty.
• When approved, agreements are sent to the preceptor and agency which provides legal assurances to both parties and covers the student during their clinical experience.
• Once the agreements are signed, the student will contact the preceptor to work out a schedule. 教师将把他们的联系信息提供给导师.
• 导师将在网上核实学生的学时和评估.

Preceptors are encouraged to contact faculty with any questions about the process or the student.

护理专业学生的新重点

Allen College recently established a Rural and Underserved Populations emphasis for Nurse Practitioner (NP) students. The number of NPs being recruited to work in low income and rural areas nearly doubled in recent years. Both low income and rural populations have increased risk factors for diabetes, COPD, 心血管病, 精神疾病. Both encounter increased barriers due to care access and social determinants leading to poorer outcomes. Providing additional content and experience for students in these areas assures Allen students are prepared to meet this demand and improve patient outcomes.

The emphasis is voluntary and requires participating students to attend two 7-hour seminars, 除了他们的常规课程之外, and they must complete 150 of their clinical hours in rural and/or underserved areas. The Care of Rural populations Seminar includes content on health care issues related to farming and rural living, 农场安全和预防, 以及移民和农场工人的文化和健康问题. 365365体育在线投注照顾服务不足人口的讨论会涉及贫穷问题, homelessness, 非裔美国人医疗保健, 关心LGBTQ+社区, mental health, 以及物质使用障碍. Both seminars focus on social determinants and resources available.

The intent of the emphasis is to equip these new healthcare providers with knowledge, competence, and resources to provide exceptional care to patients in rural or farm settings and to low income patient populations who currently struggle with disparity in health outcomes. 2021年秋季开始, these seminars will be opened to seasoned healthcare providers who want to earn CEUs and learn more about these special populations.

Working in the healthcare environment demands that we use all of the tools we can get to help us provide the best care with the most current evidence. This is a listing of some on-line resources that our providers and students have found helpful.  We don't promote any of these (they are public domain) and users should always investigate resources to assure they meet your needs.  365365体育在线投注提供这些链接只是为了方便您.
