In the context of reforming the nursing education system in Uzbekistan and the transition to a four-year bachelor's degree, improving the quality of clinical education is particularly urgent. One model aimed at improving practical training is the preceptor system, which involves experienced clinical nurses mentoring and supporting students in real-life clinical settings. An analysis of their opinions provides an objective understanding of the current level of awareness, attitudes toward preceptorship, and the degree of institutional readiness for its implementation in the clinical nursing education system.
