Hospital staff vacancy and turnover are at record levels. Your organization doesn’t have to be a statistic. Trained preceptors can make a difference. Preceptors are vital to the success of our health care organizations and workforce retention. The Missouri Preceptor Academy is a program designed for registered nurses and health care professionals to gain the training necessary to guide new employees, recent graduates, and students through the onboarding and competence validation process.
