Responsibilities

The Clinical Educator’s primary responsibility is to oversee the success and growth of the new hire programs, standardize educational training, support preceptors, and play an active, engaged role in the hospital on units and with nursing leadership to forward and support educational and organizational goals. The Clinical Educator provides continued educational support, training and mentoring to new grad, novice, and experienced Registered Nurses (RN) and Licensed Vocational / Practical Nurses (LVN/LPN), ensuring a smooth transition to practice by providing unit-based support and coordinating the needs and resources for each new nurse by follow up during and after the orientation period and throughout the training period. The Clinical Educator will serve as a clinical liaison between education and clinical Directors, Managers and Coordinators, to facilitate a timely release from orientation by assessing needs and performance in live time.

Once needs are identified, targeted knowledge and skill deficits can be addressed through the coordination of available resources. Addressing the specific needs of each new nurse will ensure their role development success as well as enhance patient outcomes. Clinical Educators will work to support the role of Preceptors so that both preceptors and new hires are supported and successful.
