What WHNP rotations involve
WHNP students focus on gynecologic, reproductive, prenatal and postpartum care, and on women’s health across the lifespan.
Common rotation settings include OB/GYN practices, women’s health and family planning clinics, prenatal clinics and community health centers.
Who can precept WHNP students?
WHNP rotations are usually precepted by a WHNP, certified nurse-midwife or OB/GYN physician. NCC will require 750 direct patient care clinical hours for WHNP certification candidates who graduate after December 31, 2029.
How many clinical hours do NP students need?
The 2022 National Task Force standards for nurse practitioner education call for at least 750 direct patient care hours, and many NP programs have moved to that requirement. Check your program’s handbook for the exact number of hours in your specialty.
