The direct care practicum hours must be with a preceptor in which direct patient care is provided to individuals, families and populations in the population-focused areas of APRN practice related to the population role and foci.
In addition to the direct care hours, other mentored learning experiences assist the student to achieve DNP competencies as outlined in the AACN DNP Essentials and are a part of the 1000 practice hour requirement and completed as an immersion experience.
Competencies
Faculty will be monitoring for progress toward competencies, which are as important if not more important than meeting minimum hours in internship. Students who have not met competencies will not progress.
