Engaging & Supporting the Preceptor

medical professionals having a meeting

Given the current and projected staffing challenges in the perioperative setting, it is critical for us to focus on the important role of the preceptor in the operating room to set the whole team up for success. Those serving as preceptor are pivotal to ensuring new team members are able to learn and assimilate effectively. Unfortunately, many experienced preceptors have shared feelings of burnout in regards to the constant need to precept.

At this edition of Leader Exchange, a panel of trusted periop leaders will share their expertise on how to engage, invigorate, and better prepare the preceptor.

  • Learn the traits which are incumbent to being an effective preceptor and coach
  • Consider new ways to prepare those serving as preceptor to bring new life into the program
  • Gain creative solutions to augment the process and the well-being of employees in the preceptor role
