When the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site, Western University of Health Sciences students may ask us to search for a candidate that fits the requirements they confirm. The program approves or declines every proposal, and directory inclusion should not be read as a statement of school policy.

This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that Western University of Health Sciences offers a particular NP or non-NP pathway, teaches online, assigns a specific practicum total, or expects students to find their own sites. Those facts require current official program materials.
The accreditation fact for Western University of Health Sciences comes from CCNE and was verified for this roster on July 21, 2026. Its scope is degree accreditation. The source does not prove a particular specialty, course format, practicum requirement, student sourcing model, review timeline, or candidate qualification standard.
Do not begin with a generic MSN placement template. Begin with the current course and ask the program to verify the pathway, required role, learning objectives, eligible setting, geography, credential standard, paperwork, compliance items, affiliation needs, and deadline. That keeps the candidate screen tied to the student's actual requirement.
When a student's confirmed course is an NP practicum, the match may center on population focus and supervised patient care. A program can evaluate the proposed clinician's certification, license, experience, practice site, patient access, availability, and willingness to complete forms. Accreditation does not tell us whether Western University of Health Sciences offers that course or which clinician types it accepts.
When the verified pathway is education, an experienced academic or clinical educator may be the relevant mentor. When it is leadership or administration, an executive, operations, or quality professional may be more aligned. The course objectives and current credential rules decide the fit. The roster does not show whether Western University of Health Sciences offers these pathways.
A confirmed informatics course may need expertise in clinical systems, analytics, implementation, or workflow. A public health, community, quality, care coordination, or clinical nurse leader course may need a different setting and mentor. Use the MSN pathways page to separate the categories, then apply only the criteria supplied by Western University of Health Sciences.
No fixed MSN practicum total can be assigned to Western University of Health Sciences from accreditation evidence. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, and catalog year. The current catalog, handbook, degree audit, course shell, and field placement office should resolve the total and how it is distributed before a preceptor, mentor, or site search is scoped.
Read how MSN practicum hours vary, then verify the active course with Western University of Health Sciences. Sourcing should begin only after the program confirms the amount, experience type, approved geography, supervisor role, setting, and forms attached to the requirement.
The directory records Pomona, California as the institution location. It does not determine the student's eligible placement area or authorize any site. Ask Western University of Health Sciences to confirm the state and setting boundaries, then evaluate candidates for relevant work, credentials, availability, supervision, conflicts, paperwork, and site participation.
For broader setting context, review the MSN practicum guide for California. It can help identify categories of clinical, education, leadership, informatics, public health, and systems sites, while the student's current program remains the authority on what is allowed.
An approval-ready file states who the proposed person is, what role that person would perform, where the experience would occur, which course objectives the setting supports, and when supervision is available. It also includes the credentials and forms the program requests. Western University of Health Sciences may separately require affiliation agreements, compliance checks, background items, insurance, or other review steps.
Before a candidate is contacted, verify the pathway, course, practicum purpose, hours, term dates, location authorization, eligible setting, supervisor role, required license or certification, experience standard, affiliation process, compliance checklist, forms, conflicts, and school deadline. A missing requirement can change who or what counts as a useful match.
Our independent sourcing process starts with the verified requirement packet, not a school-policy assumption. We look for a candidate whose role and setting appear aligned, document the relevant facts, and submit them to the program's process. Use the request form when the current instructions are ready.
This is independent placement support, not a service operated, approved, or endorsed by Western University of Health Sciences. We have no authority to accept a person or site and cannot promise that a suitable candidate will be available or that a proposal will pass program and site review. Final decisions remain outside our control.
It applies when the student's current MSN pathway or course requires a preceptor, mentor, or practicum site and the student has the current requirements needed for sourcing. Western University of Health Sciences makes every approval decision.
No. The accreditation evidence establishes an accredited master's nursing degree on the verification date. It does not prove an NP concentration, education, leadership, informatics, public health, or another pathway, and it does not establish modality or placement policy.
There is no universal MSN practicum total. Required hours vary by program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and field placement office rather than relying on a generic number.
The answer follows the confirmed pathway and course. Direct-care NP, education, leadership, informatics, public health, quality, and other experiences can require different professionals and settings. The current program must approve the proposed role, credentials, site, and paperwork.
No. MSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Western University of Health Sciences. We source and document possible candidates for program review and do not guarantee placement or approval.
