Preceptors orienting new nurses must have elements of appropriate teaching techniques. Included are knowledge, patience, perseverance, and the ability to provide constructive feedback in an encouraging manner.

Having the proper tools to teach new nurses can assist the preceptor with more detailed development of the new nurses. Maintaining encouragement through an error-free concept of care is challenging to not only the new nurse but to all nurses working to provide the best quality of care.
