FNP preceptor support for Union University students

• Program: Family Nurse Practitioner
• School: Union University
• Directory location: Jackson, Tennessee
• Verified pathways: DNP
• 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

Current official pages support the program and pathway labels below. They do not establish the student's curriculum, admissions status, tuition, modality, or clinical approval process, so those details must be confirmed directly with the program.

We verified the listed DNP evidence on July 22, 2026. Each link belongs to the institution or its official catalog and identifies the FNP specialty. The student's present course materials still control the clinical request.

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

The clinical spine is family primary care across the lifespan. A useful experience may involve prevention, assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, with reproductive or women's health included when the current course objectives require it.

A practical search may consider several parts of the primary care landscape: family practice, community health, pediatrics, internal medicine, older adult care, reproductive or women's health, school health, and approved focused practices. We do not promise that a named site will be accepted before review.

The published pathway set is DNP. 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.

Course objectives are the bridge between a pathway label and a workable placement. Pair each objective with the population, setting, primary care activity, and supervision it requires, then ask the program whether the proposed combination is eligible before treating it as final.

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 Union 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.

A useful candidate combines a relevant license or certification with day-to-day work in family practice, pediatrics, internal medicine, adult or older adult care, community health, reproductive health, or another approved primary care setting. Only Union University can accept the proposed match.

Jackson, Tennessee 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.

Pair this record with the FNP placement guide for Tennessee when considering travel and setting supply. The guide is not a list of guaranteed sites, and the program remains the approval authority.

• 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

Document the match in the program's own terms. The file should show candidate qualifications, primary care role, population and site context, objective alignment, dates, and availability. The school can require additional review or documents that we cannot approve.

Once the current checklist is clear, send the course, term dates, approved geography, required populations and setting, remaining hours, candidate criteria, and forms. Our placement process uses that brief to look for a possible match before the program evaluates it.

FNP Preceptor has no affiliation with Union University. We help students search for potential primary care preceptors and sites, subject to the program's current rules and final approval. No page, conversation, or submitted form creates a guarantee.
