Overview
This workshop is designed to provide guidance and support to social care nursing staff in adult social care on the role of the preceptor and its function in supporting preceptees within your organisation.
Nursing preceptorship is a structured period of support and development for newly registered nurses and nursing associates as they transition into their professional roles. It uses the existing knowledge and skills of your experienced nursing staff who can provide preceptorship leadership and act as preceptors.
Designed to smooth the transition into the workforce, promote safe, effective, and confident practice and foster a sense of belonging and professional identity. Newly qualified nursing staff are called ‘preceptees’ and are supported by more experienced nursing staff who act as ‘preceptors’.
