Recipients of 2021 Preceptor Excellence Awards
Tammy Vandermolen, DNP, APN, FNP-BC
Family Practice
“She coaches her students to be independent thinkers and develop systemic methods that aid in assessment findings, documentation, and creating a treatment plan that is most appropriate for the patient.”
Andrea Cutler, MSN, APRN, PMHNP
Mental Health
“Andrea challenged me as a PMHNP student yet provided me with explanations and evidence-based practice on why she assessed/treated as she did. She is caring to her patients and the relationship they have with her shows.”
Ashish John, MD
Pediatrics
“Exposure to Dr. John for pediatric clinical has allowed me to go from completely terrified at the idea of assessing a newborn baby to excited and comfortable. This is a point I do not believe I would have reached without him as my preceptor.”
Felecia Ernst, FNP-C
Women’s Health
“Felecia has a very upbeat attitude with her students, patients, and co-workers and is a great model for future NPs. Whenever providing feedback, she gives it in an encouraging way.”
