Erin Fisher, on being a preceptor:
“My desire to support our organization of highly skilled advanced practice providers motivated me to become a preceptor in the first place, but also pushes me to keep continuing to precept students. My favorite thing about precepting is to see the growth of the student on their journey to becoming an independent provider. I like working with OCU BSN-DNP students because they are always professional and well prepared.â€
