January 2022 Preceptor of the Month
Congratulations, and THANK YOU to our January Preceptor of the Month: Ron Conlin, Centrum Hearing and Audiology. Ron was nominated by Samantha Snow, who had this to say:
"Outstanding clinical supervision. Ron is a supervisor who teaches by talking through processes, discussing the rationale for clinical practice, and encouraging hands-on practice after providing demonstration. His volunteering to be a clinical supervisor improves my efficiency in clinic as well as adds to my knowledge base to be a better clinician once I graduate. My favorite experience working with Ron was completing a hearing aid repair and then fitting the patient with their newly repaired hearing aid. The repair process demonstrated a new way of repairing an earmold and reattaching to a receiver. I was guided through the fitting process as it was a new software and brand I hadn't worked with yet. I felt as though I contributed to the appointment and outcomes, rather than being a technical support. In an hour, I learned skills and critical thinking points that will help after this clinical rotation is completed."
