How lack of hands-on experience could endanger patient safety

The Podcast by KevinMD

Join us for an episode featuring Lynn McComas, a recognized expert in precepting nurse practitioners and advanced practice provider students. We’ll discuss the critical importance of hands-on training in medical education and the potential consequences for patient care when students are limited to observational roles. Lynn shares insights on the challenges health care organizations face and how we can advocate for a more practical, experience-based approach to training the next generation of health care providers.

Lynn McComas is CEO and founder, PreceptorLink, and a recognized expert in precepting nurse practitioners and advanced practice provider students.

She discusses the KevinMD article, "The future of health care depends on hands-on training: We cannot afford to cut corners."
