Nursing Clinical Placement Services

Nationwide Placement. Grounded in Quality. Backed by Partnership.

At NPHub, we help nursing programs overcome their biggest barrier to graduation and workforce entry: securing quality clinical placements.

Our nationwide network of vetted preceptors, streamlined processes, and transparent technology let schools scale enrollment and meet accreditation standards without the stress.

Nurse Practitioners are the future of healthcare, and our mission is to help them enter the field faster — with the right training, support, and opportunities.

The Nursing Clinical Bottleneck

Across the U.S., over 78,000 qualified nursing applicants were turned away in 2024 due to clinical capacity limits.

This affects over 66,000 BSN students and nearly 10,000 graduate nursing students.

Most schools point to one core issue: too few clinical sites and preceptors.

The impact is significant. Studies show 40–50% of health system staff trained at the same facility — and 96% of students hired after clinicals stay for at least a year.

Every missed placement is a lost workforce pipeline opportunity.
 NPHub helps universities turn this bottleneck into an advantage by expanding capacity, improving outcomes, and strengthening local workforce pipelines.

Our Network and Disciplines

NPHub maintains one of the largest national nursing preceptor networks across Primary Care, Acute Care, Psychiatry, Women’s Health, Pediatrics, Geriatrics, and more.

We add over 120 new providers each month and currently support 2,000+ active preceptors ready for student placements.

Every preceptor is rigorously screened through a thorough quality assurance process that includes:

Structured onboarding and verification
20-30 minute preceptor interviews
Continuous check-ins (first week, midterm, end of rotation)
Independent student reviews
Compliance tracking and document management

The result: A 100% placement success rate with a Perfect Preceptor Guarantee, meaning if the preceptor isn’t a good fit or if there is an issue in scheduling, we will replace the preceptors to ensure the student remains on track.

NPhub is an awesome company! I was able to quickly schedule all my clinicals and my school approved every preceptor I have used through NPhub. The preceptors have been amazing! Silvia has been fantastic in helping me through every step of this process even reaching out periodically throughout clinical rotation to ensure everything was going well! Highly recommend! Worth every penny!

I was nervous about going this route. Especially for the cost. BUT, I can honestly say that everything thus far has been perfect. My NP coordinators, Juliana and Luisa, have been exceptional with checking in, answering all my questions, and following up continuously. My preceptor has been fantastic so far as well. NP hub honestly made my whole clinical experience less stressful and worth the money. Will definitely be using again for my next/last semester. Would highly recommend!
