FNP preceptor support for La Salle University students

• Program: Family Nurse Practitioner
• School: La Salle University
• Directory location: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
• Verified pathways: MSN
• Official evidence checked: July 22, 2026
• Clinical focus: family and individual primary care across the lifespan
• Potential setting landscape: family practice, community health, pediatric primary care, internal medicine, adult and older adult primary care, reproductive or women's health, school or student health, and other approved primary care settings
• Approval authority: the student's current program

Treat the pathway list as an evidence boundary, not a summary of school policy. The official pages establish the FNP credential routes shown here, while the current handbook, syllabus, and program contact remain the authorities for hours, sites, preceptors, forms, and deadlines.

Official La Salle University sources checked July 22, 2026 support the MSN pathway record. Public program evidence answers whether the pathway is represented here, but the program must answer the separate questions about objectives, geography, hours, eligibility, placement ownership, and approval.

• Official FNP source 1, MSN: The current official institution or catalog source identifies the FNP MSN pathway evidence.

These citations are included for verification, not as an endorsement of our service. Read the current official page and ask the program to confirm any requirement that affects the proposed preceptor or site.

A strong FNP practicum supports clinical reasoning across ages rather than relying on a single broad label. Patient population, health promotion, common illness, chronic condition management, development, aging, and follow-up can all matter, but the program decides which experiences belong in this course.

Start with the missing competencies, then choose a setting. Family practice can offer breadth, pediatrics can strengthen child health, internal medicine can support adult care, and community or reproductive health may fill defined gaps. Formal eligibility still belongs to La Salle University.

The published pathway set is MSN. Before sourcing, separate that public fact from the student's individual clinical need. Confirm the active course, required outcomes, patient populations, remaining approved hours, location boundaries, and candidate credentials.

A useful clinical request names what the student must actually do under supervision. Define the target ages, patient mix, primary care setting, skills, continuity needs, and expected participation. That detail lets a prospective preceptor assess fit without making promises on the program's behalf.

The hour plan must come from the student's program record. Nationally, NTF recommends a 750-hour direct patient care minimum for an NP population focus, and the FNP certification bodies publish a 500-hour faculty-supervised eligibility floor. Neither figure is presented here as La Salle University's rule.

Use the FNP clinical hours guide for national context and the preceptor requirements guide for screening questions. Neither guide replaces the program's current instructions.

Credentials start the review, but they do not finish it. We gather the prospective preceptor's license, certification, current primary care role, experience, patient population, site, and availability. The student's program applies its own criteria and makes the approval decision.

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania identifies the school record but does not define a clinical territory. A student may be able to consider nearby or distant practices only if the program permits it. We confirm those boundaries before screening candidates.

For wider geographic context, read the FNP placement guide for Pennsylvania. It describes the state's primary care landscape without assigning a policy to La Salle University or claiming that a named practice accepts students.

• The exact course, clinical objectives, term dates, and remaining approved hours
• The approved geography, lifespan populations, primary care setting, and required experiences
• The proposed clinician's license, certification, specialty, primary care role, and availability
• The site's practice setting, patient mix, and opportunities tied to the objectives
• Every current preceptor, site, compliance, and submission form supplied by the program

Before submission, assemble the candidate's license and certification details, role, site, population mix, clinical opportunities, schedule, and fit with each objective. The program may request more information or decline the proposal. A complete file is never presented as a guarantee.

A search request works best when it includes the active course, dates, location limits, primary care setting, lifespan populations, competencies, hour need, preceptor rules, and approval documents. See how the process works, then bring the current program materials.

We do not represent La Salle University and have no authority to approve a clinician, site, schedule, or clinical plan. Our independent role is limited to searching and documenting a possible match. Availability, review time, and the final program decision cannot be guaranteed.
