Rotation types we coordinate

What each rotation typically involves, and what tends to make it easier or harder to place.

  • Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP)

    Primary care across the lifespan, usually in an outpatient family practice or community clinic. The most commonly required rotation and typically the broadest in patient population.

    Typical settings: Outpatient family practice, community health, urgent care

  • Adult-Gerontology Primary Care (AGPCNP)

    Primary care for adolescents through older adults, with an emphasis on chronic disease management and preventive care in an ambulatory setting.

    Typical settings: Internal medicine clinics, geriatric practices, long-term care

  • Adult-Gerontology Acute Care (AGACNP)

    Acutely and critically ill adult patients. These rotations need a site with the acuity to support the competencies, which makes them harder to place than primary care.

    Typical settings: Hospital medicine, intensive care, specialty inpatient services

  • Psychiatric-Mental Health (PMHNP)

    Assessment, diagnosis, and management of mental health conditions across the lifespan, including medication management and therapeutic modalities.

    Typical settings: Outpatient behavioural health, community mental health, inpatient psychiatry

  • Pediatric Nurse Practitioner (PNP)

    Infants through adolescents, in primary or acute care depending on your programme's track. Sites often have additional background-check and immunisation requirements.

    Typical settings: Paediatric primary care, children's hospitals, school-based health

  • Women's Health (WHNP)

    Gynaecologic, reproductive, and obstetric care. Rotations frequently involve procedures whose supervision requirements your school will specify.

    Typical settings: OB/GYN practices, women's health clinics, family planning services

  • Neonatal (NNP)

    Neonatal intensive and intermediate care. The most specialised of the common tracks, and correspondingly the most constrained by site availability.

    Typical settings: Neonatal intensive care units, newborn nurseries

On availability

We do not publish live supply

You will not find preceptor counts or availability on this page. That information belongs to the preceptors and sites who share it with us, and a public count in a small specialty can identify an individual. Sign in and describe your rotation to see what is genuinely available for your dates and area.

If nothing is available for your specialty in your area, we would rather tell you that than show you weak matches. We track zero-result searches by specialty specifically so we know where to recruit preceptors next.

Specialty questions

Why does this page not show how many preceptors are available?

Because that is private marketplace supply. Publishing live counts would expose our partner sites' capacity and, in a thinly staffed specialty, let anyone infer an individual preceptor's availability. Signed-in students see real availability matched against their own rotation request.

My specialty is not listed. Can you still help?

Possibly. This list covers the tracks we see most often, not a limit on what we will coordinate. Create a request describing what your programme requires and we will tell you honestly whether we can serve it.

Are some specialties harder to place than others?

Yes, and it is worth planning around. Acute care, neonatal, and paediatric rotations depend on sites with specific acuity and additional onboarding, so they generally need more lead time than primary care rotations.
