Harris and Creason Named as Truman Nursing Community Preceptors of the Year

Truman State University’s Nursing Program recently selected Denise Harris R.N.C. and Amy Creason R.N. as its Community Preceptors of the Year. Harris and Creason were honored at an awards luncheon at Truman on April 26. They work at the Linn County Health Department in Brookfield, Mo., and have been preceptors for Truman nursing students for several years.

The Nursing Program at Truman selects highly qualified registered nurses to serve as role models, mentors and supervisors for senior nursing students in selected clinical areas of interest. These R.N. preceptors assist the faculty and students in meeting course objectives in the selected clinical areas. Each year faculty and senior students select and honor acute care and community preceptors of the year.
