Preceptors are instrumental in orientating nursing and healthcare professionals to their new roles.
The primary role of a preceptor is to assist students and facilitate learning to help them meet their objectives, and orientation plays a big role in this.
If you want to show your appreciation to a preceptor for your orientation, sending them a thank you note is the perfect way.
