Neonatal Nurse Practitioners, Where are you?

Abstract

This review explores challenges faced by Neonatal Nurse Practitioner (NNP) students in securing qualified preceptors. Key barriers include limited preceptor availability, staffing shortages, high workloads, and lack of institutional support. Solutions such as incentives, formal training, telehealth supervision, and improved institutional backing are essential to strengthen NNP education and clinical preparedness.
