Featured Preceptor: Erin Crone, FNP

At the heart of Frontier Nursing University is a talented and diverse community of students, alumni, faculty, staff, Couriers and preceptors. Spotlight blogs feature members of our FNU community that are focused on the mission of educating nurse-midwives and nurse practitioners to deliver quality health care to underserved and rural populations.

 

Frontier Nursing University (FNU) preceptor Erin Crone, FNP, from Pullman & Ariza Pediatrics of Washington, D.C., was honored as FNUโ€™s โ€œFeatured Preceptorโ€ for the fall term. Erin was nominated by former student Marzi Viverette, FNP class 109, and FNU faculty member, Dr. Amy Nassar.

 

โ€œErin was an amazing preceptor,โ€ said Marzi. โ€œShe was a patient teacher who always took the time to answer my questions and help guide me during my pediatric clinicals.โ€

 

Erinโ€™s love of teaching students one-on-one led her to begin precepting nurse practitioner students in January 2012. Precepting gives Erin the ability to provide a comprehensive learning experience in pediatrics. According to Dr. Nassar, Erinโ€™s usage of evidence-based care helps FNU students learn how to treat illnesses and conditions according to guidelines.

 

Erin has worked in pediatric primary care with Pullman & Ariza Pediatrics since she graduated from Georgetown University School of Nursing and Health Studies almost seven years ago. Her clinic serves a wide range of ethnicities and different family structures. For more information on Erinโ€™s practice, click here.

 

Erin will receive a Starbucks gift card as a small token of our appreciation for her being a great preceptor. Thanks for your investment in our FNU students, Erin!
