“In the beginning I felt guilty for being paid to precept, I’m not going to lie.” 💭
Kristy is an NP in Melbourne, Florida, seeing up to 60 patients a day. She started precepting to give back, because she remembers how hard it was to find her own preceptor.
Before NPHub, she found students through Facebook groups and word of mouth. A lot of them fell through because they needed primary care, not urgent care. And she did all the legwork herself, on top of a full patient load.
Now students come to her. In her words: “The paperwork is seamless, so I don’t have to do anything.” She takes one student at a time, so each one gets a good experience.
And the guilt? “Providers definitely get compensated to do medical students.” 💜
