1 DEVELOPMENT OF A WEB-BASED PRECEPTOR ORIENTATION AND CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

2 Preceptor Toolkit

3 A Health Information Technology Scholar Program Project Advancing Health Information Technologies Through Faculty Empowerment HITS: Faculty Development: Integrated Technology into Nursing Education & Practice Initiative is supported by a HRSA grant to The University of Kansas School of Nursing, University of Colorado Denver, Johns Hopkins University, and Indiana University, and National League for Nursing (NLN)

4 Project Team Cheryl Holly, EdD, RN Professor and Chair Capacity Building Systems Co-Director, Northeast Institute for Evidence Synthesis and Translation, A Collaborating Center of the Joanna Briggs Institute for Nursing and Midwifery Rosario P. Estrada, DNP, RN, BC, CPN Assistant Professor/Track Coordinator MSN Nursing Informatics Program University of Medicine and Dentistry of NJ School of Nursing Newark, New Jersey University of Medicine and Dentistry of NJ School of Nursing Newark, New Jersey Project Mentor: Dr. Maryanne Rizzolo, NLN

5 Our Purpose The objective of this project is to develop an easy to use e-learning space for preceptor orientation and continued development in the preceptor role.

6 Environment for the Project Type of programs Baccalaureate (BSN), Master's (MSN), Post-Master's Certificate (PMC), Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Preceptors

7 Preceptor a preceptor is a skilled practitioner who supervises students in a clinical setting to allow practical experience with patients A preceptor is a teacher responsible to uphold a certain law or tradition, a precept.

8 Varied Roles Facilitate student learning through clinical instruction, guidance, direct observation, and feedback Facilitate and/or assess the student s use of clinical inquiry and clinical reasoning in planning for and providing clinical care Assess and promote the student s development and use of evidence-based practice

9 Varied Roles Actively engage in providing regular feedback to the Clinical Faculty about student performance Collaborate with Clinical Faculty or Clinical Resource in assigning learning activities across the continuum of care Support development of the student s understanding of the role,, system of care delivery, procedures, and client population

10 Essentially Facilitators Assessors Collaborators Coaches Mentors

11 Goals Project Goals Accomplishments during the 1 st year Continued development in the preceptor role is conceptualized: * Convene a technical advisory panel consisting of faculty & active preceptors * Develop an interactive website for preceptor orientation * Offer a required a six hour certificate web-based orientation module * Create a space to continue to learn the intricacies of best practice in clinical teaching * Convene a technical advisory panel consisting of faculty & active preceptors *Assess/Plan/Implemen t web-based Preceptor orientation program * Develop a database of preceptors * Development of the interactive Preceptors Toolkit website * Recognize Preceptors * Dev 6-hr Web-based preceptor orientation module * Pilot this project by the 2 nd yr * Eval effectiveness/outcome of Preceptor Orient program * Use of discussion boards/journal discussion on clinical teaching strategies Utilize library resources for locating evidence collaboration/sharing of peer to peer preceptor learning.

12 Strategies Engage in active experiential learning Facilitate selfreflection on the preceptor role Evaluate/ ensure continuous improvement/v alue/effectiven ess of the preceptor program

13 Anticipated Project Outcomes How will you measure How success will you measure success The intended outcome Ongoing Evaluation & feedback Expert advisory you see discussion What will when you get there? Ongoing Evaluation & feedback Expert advisory Panel/discussion Blog The intended outcome is to improve the overall quality of the student practicum experience at all levels while enhancing clinical teaching capacity Improve the overall quality of the student practicum experience at all levels while enhancing clinical teaching capacity Competent, caring, satisfied preceptors leaders Well-prepared students in providing safe, efficient and quality care/outcome Dillon et al (2012); Blum, (2009); Boyer,(2008)

14 First Year Goals 1. Convene a technical advisory panel consisting of faculty & active preceptors 2. Assessment/Planning of the web-based Preceptor orientation program 3. Develop a database of preceptors 4. Begin development of the interactive Preceptors Toolkit website

15 First Year Accomplishments 1. Convene a technical advisory panel consisting of faculty & active preceptors. Our Advisory Committee consists of: Dr. Cheryl Holly Dr. Rose Estrada Dr. Barbara Caldwell Dr. Mary Jo Bugel Prof. Joseph Boney Dr. Patricia Hindin Joan Braun Susan Fulginiti Prof. Gail Poltawec Cio dela Riva Luz Ronquillo

16 First Year Accomplishments 2. Assessment/Planning of the web-based Preceptor orientation program 3. Develop a database of preceptors database of preceptor s was developed We have 700 preceptors Survey Monkey Clinical Instructors Preceptors

17 Survey Results. N = % Female 56% > 50 years 81% APRN; 16% MD/DO; 3% RN

18 N = 35 Clinical Instructors Preceptors 87% Female 56% > 50 years 81% APRN; 16% MD/DO; Clinical Instructors 88% Female 65% > 50 years 73% APRN; 28% RN 3% RN

19 Clinical Instructors Preceptors Coaching/Mentoring Coaching/Mentoring Managing Assignments for Critical Thinking and Decision Making Managing Assignments for Critical Thinking and Decision Making Competency/skill Assessment Providing ongoing feedback to course faculty and students Providing ongoing feedback to course faculty and students Competency/skill Assessment Principles of adult teaching and learning How to incorporate students into a busy day Evaluating Students Clinical Work

20 Priority Areas Clinical Instructors Coaching and Mentoring Providing feedback Making assignments for critical thinking and decision making Preceptors Coaching and Mentoring Making assignments for critical thinking and decision making How to incorporate students into a busy day

21 CE Areas of Interest 1. Neurology/Acute Care 2. Precepting/Tutoring/Mentoring 3. Teaching Strategies 4. Insurance/Coding 5. Pharmacology 6. Informatics/EHR

22 To address these suggestions June Appreciation Day Keynote Speaker First online development module Neurologist 1 st year goal 4: Begin development of the interactive Preceptors Toolkit website Coaching and Mentoring

23 Second Year Goals -In progress Recognize Preceptors for their work (Preceptor Appreciation Day in June, 2013) Find a key note speaker for the #1 suggested development activity: Neurology Launching the Preceptor Website

24 First Module Objectives At the end of this module, you will be able to: Differentiate between mentoring and coaching Explain the role of a mentor and a coach Learn how to create a safe learning environment for coaching

25 First Module Coach Mentor Focus Task Individual Role Director Facilitator Relationship Short term Long term Outcome Performance Affirmation
