NPHub is how Georgia NP students find preceptors — 517+ rotations prove it
NPHub has secured 517+ clinical placements for nurse practitioner students across Georgia, making it one of the state's most established preceptor matching services.
Our vetted network of 66 active preceptors supports Psychiatry/Mental Health, Primary Care (all ages and adult only), Pediatrics, Women's Health (OB/GYN, GYN-only, and OB-only), Acute Care, Urgent Care, and Geriatric NP programs, with an average of just 10 days from rotation request to paperwork ready. We manage all preceptor coordination, school approvals, and ongoing support from the first placement through the final clinical rotation.
You might be weeks or months into your preceptor search. You've been emailing colleagues, leveraging workplace contacts, and reaching out through every professional connection you have and getting nothing back. Not a yes, not a no, just silence. All while working full-time as an RN, keeping up with coursework, and trying to hold everything else together.
Your school probably told you that finding a preceptor was your responsibility. Maybe they said, "Get three rejection letters and we'll help you find a placement." But you can't even get the rejection letter. You're just being ghosted.

That's exactly where Michael was. He's an Adult Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (AGACNP) student based in Atlanta who was trying to secure rotations across hospitalist, ER, and ICU settings. Despite working in the hospital system and using every internal connection he had, he couldn't even get clinics to respond. With fewer than 20,000 AGACNPs in the entire country, finding a preceptor in his specialty on his own was nearly impossible. Then he turned to NPHub, and within a single day he could shop the network and lock in placements he'd been chasing for weeks.
NPHub supports NP students statewide across Georgia — Atlanta, Augusta, Savannah, and beyond — in every major NP specialty: Psychiatry/Mental Health (PMHNP), Family/Primary Care (FNP), Primary Care adult only (AGPCNP), Pediatrics (PNP), Women's Health (OB/GYN, GYN-only, and OB-only), Acute Care (AGACNP), Urgent Care, and Geriatrics.

That's exactly where Sebrina was. She's an FNP student in Georgia who spent six months trying to secure a pediatrics rotation on her own. Her NP program had the local preceptor pool locked down, and every door she knocked on was closed. Then a classmate recommended NPHub on their school's Facebook group, and Sebrina went from six months of searching alone to two rotations booked with a team that made her feel like family, not just another student in the queue.

Why Is It So Hard to Find a Preceptor in Georgia?
Finding an NP preceptor in Georgia is hard because the demand for clinical placements has far outpaced what the state's clinics and preceptors can absorb. Every semester, more NP students need rotations, and fewer preceptors are willing to take them on.
The shortage comes down to:
University programs control the pipeline.
In markets like Augusta, university-affiliated programs lock up relationships with local clinics. If you're not in one of those programs, you're competing for whatever's left and in specialties like Pediatrics, that can mean nothing at all.
Rare specialties make it nearly impossible.
There are fewer than 20,000 Adult Gerontology Acute Care NPs (AGACNP) in the entire country. Pediatrics, PMHNP, and Women's Health face similar bottlenecks. When few preceptors practice your specialty to begin with, finding one within driving distance becomes a long shot.
Preceptors are stepping back.
Supervising students means fewer patients, lower productivity metrics, more paperwork, and added liability. Many Georgia preceptors have stopped taking students for two years or more after a single bad experience.
Schools aren't bridging the gap.
Most Georgia NP programs put placement responsibility on students without providing the connections to make it happen, leaving you to cold-call clinics and manage paperwork on top of a full-time job and coursework.
This is the wall Michael hit in Atlanta when he tried to secure hospitalist, ER, and ICU rotations through his own hospital network. Despite working inside the system and using every internal connection he had, he couldn't even get clinics to respond. It's the same wall hundreds of NP students in Georgia run into every semester. The preceptors are out there, but reaching them on your own, in time, is where the system breaks down.

What Did NPHub Do for Michael?
NPHub gave Michael back his time, his focus, and his momentum. As an AGACNP student in Atlanta, pursuing one of the rarest NP specialties in the country, he was juggling a lot on his own. His own employer's network ghosted him. His school's "three rejection letters" policy was useless when he couldn't get a single response.
NPHub took the stress out of the clinical search for Sebrina, an FNP student in Georgia, who spent six months trying to find a pediatrics rotation on her own.
With Augusta University locking down the local preceptor pool, every attempt she made — calls, emails, outreach — led nowhere.
Here's how Michael went from chasing dead-end emails to locking in rotations the same day:
Gave him a network to shop, not chase.
Michael browsed vetted preceptors who'd already agreed to take students. He picked a match and locked it in the same day.
Answered specialty-specific questions same day.
When a listing was vague — "Is this preceptor ICU, ICU specialist, or hospitalist?" — his student coordinator came back with the exact answer within 24 hours.
Expanded his reach beyond his own circles.
Michael secured rotations in Atlanta and supplemented with options in Memphis, where competition is lower, a network that no single student could build alone.
Connected him with high-credentialed preceptors.
One placement is with a preceptor holding both a DNP and a PhD, an opportunity Michael says he'd never have accessed through his own network.
Protected his study time.
No more emailing and waiting. Michael got back the hours he needed to focus on becoming a nurse practitioner.
"It's like internet dating now. You have so much that's in your circle — your social circle, your professional circle — and it's very limited, even in a big organization. So it definitely helps to have a third party that expands those circles. I have one rotation set up with someone who has their DNP and their PhD. I would not have had that experience without this matching site."

Five stars!
I had a great experience using NP Hub for my second PMHNP clinical placement. The entire process was seamless and very well organized from start to finish. They handled the logistics efficiently and made what can often be a stressful part of NP training much easier.
A special thank you to Miguel, who was incredibly helpful throughout the process. He was responsive, professional, and ensured everything stayed on track. Having someone knowledgeable and supportive coordinating the placement made a big difference.
Overall, NP Hub made securing my clinical placement straightforward and stress-free. I would absolutely recommend them to other NP students!

As a PMHNP graduate student
As a PMHNP graduate student, securing clinical placements can be one of the most stressful and challenging parts of training. NPHub helped make that process significantly more manageable for me. Camilo and Mariale were both incredibly responsive, supportive, and professional throughout the entire experience. They consistently communicated updates, answered questions quickly, and made me feel supported during a process that can often feel overwhelming for students.
I am truly grateful for their help and would absolutely recommend NPHub to other nurse practitioner students who are struggling to find quality clinical placements

Awesome coordinators!
All the coordinators were very proactive and helpful in assuring that I had the best experience with my practicums. They followed up frequently to see how things were progressing and helped to facilitate communication between me and my preceptor when I was unable to get in touch with them. I greatly appreciate all of the service. This made my last few practicums worry free!
