FNP Clinical Placement Information

  • FNP Clinical Placement Information

    The information provided on these pages is subject to change.  If you discover inaccurate information or broken links please inform the Clinical Placement Coordinator at clinicalpaperwork@marianuniversity.edu so updates/corrections can be made.

    Clinical sites frequently used by Marian University are are listed below.  This is not an exclusive list of agencies.  We have 100+ affiliation agreements on file, so if there is an agency you are interested in working with that is not listed below, contact the Clinical Placement Coordinator.  The Coordinator will review if there is an agreement on file, and if not inquire with the agency if it is possible to execute an agreement.

    Please review the steps outlined in the link for the agency you wish to use for practicum.  Preceptor Request Form is needed for every request.  Remember, a request is not confirmed until you have received an email confirmation from the Clinical Placement Coordinator.

    You may notice that placement deadlines on agency websites are generally 15 days later than the deadline on the right hand column of the MO2 page.  The Clinical Placement Coordinator needs time to prepare and submit requests to the agency.  This buffer allows time to make sure all required information, such as CV/resume and agency specific paperwork is complete and ready to go by the submission deadline.  Failure to submit the Preceptor Request form by the MO2 date may result in a missed opportunity with an agency.

    • This document is a helpful resource for organizing and documenting your preceptor search.  If you encounter challenges in finding a preceptor, you will be required to submit a contact log before the Clinical Placement Coordinator can provide assistance.

    • Not all agencies allow direct contact (cold-calling) to their preceptors. Review agency specific information under the "Clinical Information" section for guidelines.

      Please utilize your resources by networking with associates on your clinical rotations, ask your classmates and/or your current preceptor if applicable, and reach out to your clinical instructors before trying to contact individual preceptors using these scripts. 

    • Attached is a list of active contracts that Marian holds with various agencies, which may be appropriate for an FNP practicum experience.  Just because an agency is listed on the document, does not mean they will have a provider or specialty that will appropriately meet the practicum guidelines/requirements.  You will need to research the agency/preceptor to determine appropriateness based on the guidelines presented on the Resources for Students - MSN page here in MO2.  You may use this list to get ideas of places to look for a potential preceptor.  This list is intended to be a tool to help with networking and research to locate a preceptor and does not guarantee a placement.  The list is subject to change and is only guaranteed accurate at the time it was created.  Efforts will be made to update the document as changes occur.  If you have interest in a placement with an agency not on the list, please contact the Clinical Placement Coordinator at clinicalpaperwork@marianuniversity.edu to discuss your ideas.
