All clinical experiences are slightly different because students work in various healthcare environments. During clinical rotations, you will be under the close supervision of your preceptor and the indirect supervision of Holy Family clinical faculty. You will be given specific instructions to follow while keeping clinical practice guidelines in mind.
You will receive a notification from your placement coordinator prior to each clinical start date. Once the placement has been confirmed and communicated, you are encouraged to begin working directly with your preceptor to establish a schedule.
Throughout the program and through to graduation, you will be in close communication with your Placement Coordinator who will prepare you for clinicals by ensuring you complete all requirements and meet deadlines, answering your questions, verifying your clearance requirements, and walking you through the nursing clinicals checklist.
Our clinical placement team works closely with you to ensure your rotations meet University and national guidelines. You’ll work with a dedicated Holy Family University Placement Coordinator who will walk you through the process and be your primary point of contact for placement logistics. Based on the program requirements and where you live, your Placement Coordinator will identify an appropriate site and preceptor for you within your community.
Working under the supervision of a licensed registered nurse preceptor during your clinical rotations, you’ll practice what you learned in the online classroom. Clinicals are very similar to an internship or being an apprentice; you provide care for real patients while benefiting from the supervision and guidance of your preceptor. Additionally, Holy Family University faculty will direct and evaluate the clinical experience providing support to both you and your preceptor.
