The Graduate Nursing Department in the School of Nursing recently recognized five clinical preceptors for their contributions to the education of students in the Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner (AGNP) programs.
Graduate nursing students nominate preceptors each year to recognize healthcare providers whose mentorship, guidance, and commitment have had a meaningful impact on their clinical education.
This year’s honorees are:
- Kaydean Harris, DNP, FNP, SUNY Geneseo Student Health & Counseling Center, Preceptor of the Year
- Margaret Johnson, FNP, URMC Batavia Primary Care
- Elizabeth Printup, DNP, FNP-C, Foothills Medical Group
- Lindsey Waliszewski, FNP-C, LeRoy Family Medicine
- Sean Whelen, AGNP-C, URMC Panorama Internal Medicine
Clinical Coordinator Erin Lee presented certificates of recognition to the nominated preceptors and recognized Harris as this year’s Preceptor of the Year.
Clinical preceptors provide students with supervised, hands-on learning experiences that help prepare future nurse practitioners for professional practice.
