Who is this for?
This is for West Virginia NP students who have spent weeks cold-calling clinics or sitting on a waitlist while a clinical deadline creeps closer. If you need a vetted preceptor in Charleston, Huntington, Morgantown, or anywhere else in the state — and you want the affiliation paperwork handled for you — you are in the right place.
Why is it hard to find a preceptor in West Virginia?
Finding an NP preceptor in West Virginia is challenging because student enrollment has outpaced local clinic capacity in high-demand hubs like Charleston, Huntington, Morgantown. The shortage comes down to:
- WVU Medicine dominates the academic pool
- The WVU Medicine system anchors most NP training in Morgantown and surrounding counties, and its preceptor slots are reserved largely for WVU's own students before they reach the open market.
- Opioid crisis drives surging PMHNP demand
- West Virginia carries one of the highest substance use disorder burdens in the country, and behavioral health rotations are oversubscribed. Psychiatric preceptors fill quickly, and rural counties have almost none.
- Rural Appalachian access gaps
- Outside Charleston, Huntington, and Morgantown, NPs are stretched thin across mountain counties. Willing preceptors exist, but distance and the lack of nearby specialty clinics slow placements.
- Liability and paperwork load
- Credentialing between WVU Medicine, CAMC, Marshall Health, and Mon Health adds weeks of administrative work that already-overloaded preceptors will not absorb without help.
