Change of status and discontinuance Preceptor concerns

(a) If the intern/trainee wishes to change to another preceptor, or discontinues the training, the intern/trainee must notify the Board prior to making this change. (b) The notification requires the name of the intern/trainee and preceptor, the change requested, the effective date, reasons for the change, and any other information that the Board may request. Either the intern/trainee or the preceptor must sign the notification. (c) If a substandard quality of care finding in a facility is upheld disciplinary or enforcement action is taken against an administrator who is a certified serving as a preceptor working with an intern/trainee, the Board Department shall evaluate the situation and determine if there is a need to assist the intern/trainee in finding a new preceptor and may, at its sole discretion, direct that a new preceptor be assigned to the AIT reassign the intern to a different preceptor.
