Preceptor Criteria Revisited
Background:
Preceptor selection criteria based on demographic data has been shown to yield inconsistent degrees of success in the role. The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to determine if preceptors with different levels of innovativeness identified different benefits and challenges when implementing the preceptor role.
Method:
A mixed-methods study was conducted using online surveys to determine each participants' individual level of innovativeness. Interviews were conducted with preceptors from each innovator category to identify benefits and challenges in implementing the preceptor role.
Results:
Preceptors who scored lower in innovativeness identified challenges that were not discussed by preceptors who scored higher in innovativeness. Conversely, preceptors who scored higher in innovativeness identified benefits that were not common to preceptors with lower levels of innovativeness.
Conclusion:
Opportunities for nurse educators and facility nurse leaders were presented to meet the diverse needs of the preceptor and provide for more consistent implementation of the preceptor role. [J Contin Educ Nurs. 2020;51(9):425-432.].
