Preceptors have the power and opportunity to inspire nurses and other healthcare providers to achieve greatness. Effective precepting programs depend on two critical groups: those who organize and manage the programs and those who support, teach, and coach. Beth Ulrich-nationally recognized for her research in work environments and transitional experiences of new graduate nurses-and her team of expert contributing authors provide the knowledge, tools, skills, and wisdom both groups need for success.Written for staff nurses and other care providers, their managers, and educators, this third edition of Mastering Precepting teaches preceptors both the science and art of precepting and empowers them to seek the support they need to be effective. For managers, it emphasizes the importance of providing nurse preceptors with positive and supportive experiences. For educators, it provides the information and knowledge required to develop and improve preceptor programs.TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1: The Preceptor RoleChapter 2: Learning: The Foundation of PreceptingChapter 3: Core Precepting ConceptsChapter 4: Precepting StrategiesChapter 5: Developing a Professional IdentityChapter 6: Having a Plan: Developing and Using Goals, Objectives, and OutcomesChapter 7: CommunicationChapter 8: CoachingChapter 9: Effectively Using Instructional TechnologiesChapter 10: Precepting Specific Learner PopulationsChapter 11: Precepting Advanced Practice Registered NursesChapter 12: Assessing and Addressing Preceptee Behavior and MotivationChapter 13: Pragmatics of PreceptingChapter 14: Self-Care for PreceptorsChapter 15: The NPD Practitioner: Responsibility for Preceptor ProgramsChapter 16: For Managers: Selecting, Supporting, and Sustaining PreceptorsChapter 17: Preceptor Development
