If you’re having difficulty finding the right site or preceptor, don’t be afraid to ask for assistance. Just be aware that the amount of help your program can provide may depend on your location. If you live in a rural region or one with a limited healthcare network, your MSN program might not have immediate contacts in your area. Professors are often happy to offer advice, however, along with resources or referrals. They can also help you figure out the right search strategy to achieve placement success.
