Introduction
The preceptor workshop is designed for nurses who are working towards or who have achieved proficient level on their Professional Development and Recognition Programme (PDRP) and have been nominated by their Charge Nurse Manager to fulfil this role.
It is an expectation that all nurses who have attained proficient level on the PDRP attend the preceptor workshop and are actively involved in preceptorship within their clinical area. (Please refer to preceptor policy on District Docs).
The one day workshop meets the National Framework requirements for precepting graduate nurses and undergraduate students. The workshop integrates theory and practice enabling nurses to confidently fulfil their preceptor role through clinical teaching and assessment within their own area of practice.
