Individual Student Placements with Preceptors

These types of placements involve a student being placed, with an individual preceptor from our facility, for an agreed period of time. This includes preceptor placements, internships, externships, practicums, etc. This is not for groups of students that come to our facility, with an instructor, for clinical experience.

1. The first step in obtaining placements in SJMHS is to obtain a clinical contract for your school and program. Please contact the Affiliating Schools Coordinator at the e-mail address or phone number listed below to have a contract drafted. Hospital policy requires that we use the hospital’s contract template for all contracts.

   All information required for placements includes:

   1. Contract – once signed by both parties, it is considered approved.
   2. Copy of schools liability insurance.
   3. Copy of course syllabi or objectives.

*Students MAY NOT begin clinical placements in our system until the above information is received/approved.

2. Once this information is verified then the student needs to complete the following forms and submit them to the Affiliating Schools Coordinator:

1. Preceptor Request Form
2. Participant Agreement
3. Confidentiality Agreement
4. Orientation checklist, signed

3. Students must still complete the orientation requirements listed under the Student Orientation Materials and follow the directions listed.
