Eventually, the student will achieve the Clinical Competencies! When the preceptor is confident that the student is a safe beginning level practitioner, the RCC will provide a Declaration of Safety (DOS) form. The preceptor should sign it and return it to the FSMFN Registrar as directed. Timing of the DOS is at the preceptor's discretion. Regardless of when it is signed, the student needs to complete the clinical numbers and time requirements.

B. Honorarium

All honorariums are paid at the time that the students complete their entire clinical requirements. All students record the hours they spend with the preceptor in the clinical area. The student sends this documentation to the RCC. The RCC then prorate the hours for each site if the student has been in multiple sites and submits this to the Quality Assurance Officer at the FSMFN. The Quality Assurance Officer then sends the preceptor and invoice to complete and return to the school. The invoice requires the name of the recipient and the social security or tax ID number for either the preceptor or the practice. A check will be sent promptly to the preceptor once the school receives the invoice.

C. Feedback To the FSMFN

The preceptor will be asked to communicate in writing with the FSMFN as part of the preceptor's faculty role. The RCC will provide the preceptor with a form for evaluating site visits. There will be a final evaluation form sent with the invoice also that allows the preceptor to evaluate the FSMFN. The FSMFN welcomes any comments or suggestions the preceptor has for the program faculty. Preceptor contribution to the faculty of the FSMFN is critically important for program and student success. The school welcomes clinical faculty ideas and suggestions.
