Section 1: Preceptors provide individualized assistance and attention to newly hired Staff Nurses in order to facilitate their transition into the organization.
Section 2: Preceptors will be selected by MHHC based upon such factors as clinical competency, communication and interpersonal skills, and a minimum of one year (1) of service with the MHHC and a minimum of one (1) year of homecare experience..All of the current visiting nurse staff, at the signing of this agreement, are eligible for selection. Visiting nurses selected to precept will meet with the clinical supervisor to review the plan and schedule for orientation. If the newly hired staff nurse requires additional precepting/orientation beyond 6 months, an extension of three months may be required and written notice will be given.
(Do you want MHHC to select you as a preceptor? Do you have a different thought about the selection process?)
Section 3 Precepting will be rotated equally among the MHHC selected preceptors.
Section 4: Any preceptor may withdraw from preceptor status at any time by providing written notice to MHHC. In addition, MHHC may provide orientation for newly hired staff nurses through other means and methods but not to replace the role and work of the preceptors.
Section 5: Preceptors shall be paid a one time bonus of $500.00 upon the completion of the orientation.
(What would you change in this language to receive this Bonus? Is it enough?)
Section 6: Current Liaisons who act as a preceptor to newly hired employees shall receive a $2.00 per hour differential for hours engaged in such work.
(Would you want to receive more than $2.00 per hour differential for assisting to train a new Liaisons Nurse?)
Section 7: Preceptors may have a reduced case load while they are precepting.
