The preceptor is the nurse supervisor in the COVID-19 isolation facility. My preceptor has responsibilities both as a clinician and an educator. She is directly responsible for establishing the goals and objectives of the student in the practicum area and then assessing the achievement of the student outcome. The preceptor also works to assist the student in applying theory to the practice. To become an effective preceptor, L’Ecuyer et al. (2018) talks about three main competencies necessary, and this include instructing, interpersonal relationships, and competency assessment skills. Girotto et al. (2019) shares that since preceptorship is a great learning opportunity for students as well as a professional, the role of the preceptor is to be competent in providing instruction. Different modalities of instruction must be utilized in alignment with the specific learning skills of the students.
