Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare preceptors and new graduate nurses on their perception of preceptor teaching effectiveness.
Methods: The participants were 90 new nurses and 90 preceptors who worked in A medical center. The data were collected from July 1 to September 30, 2008. A cross-sectional descriptive survey was done using a structured questionnaire.
Results: New nurses’ perception (4.07±.44) of the preceptor teaching effectiveness was significantly higher than perception of the preceptors (3.57±.37). Fifty five percent of new graduate nurses reported a lack of coherence in the preceptor’s practice guidelines. For 5 causal factors classified on the teaching effectiveness, the factor of ’Professional knowledge and ability’ showed the highest score, but ’Interpersonal and communication skill’ got lowest score for both group. Preceptors responded that they did not have enough time to teach well because of their heavy workloads.
Conclusions: These results suggest that the preceptors need appropriate compensation and education opportunities, and new graduate nurses need consistent education by the teaching professionals. Therefore, it is important to give preceptors full charge of the preceptorship. Also, it will be necessary to develop education programs to enhance interpersonal and communication skill for preceptors and new nurses.
