Talk:Preceptor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Came here looking for info on UK Nursing/Midwifery Preceptorship. typed preceptorship which redirects here. don't know enough to write a page but if anyone does i think the info would be valuable. I think it is their 1st 12 months in the job post degree/diploma.

This is not my field but I believe the term "preceptor" has a well known and clear meaning in medical education. That's the first place I heard it and where I hear it used most often. I'm sure there are better sources but here's the entry from <medical.merriam-webster.com>: "a practicing physician who gives personal instruction, training, and supervision to a medical student or young physician" JOWhitlock (talk) 19:10, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
