AGPCNP preceptor support for Stony Brook University students

• Program: Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner
• School: Stony Brook University
• Directory location: Stony Brook, New York
• Verified pathways: MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate
• Official evidence checked: July 21, 2026
• Clinical population: adults and older adults with stable or chronic conditions that benefit from ongoing care
• Setting landscape: internal medicine, adult primary care, geriatrics, community health, long-term care, chronic disease management, and approved specialty primary-care settings
• Approval authority: the student's current program

Current official pages support the program and pathway labels below. They do not establish the student's exact curriculum or the school's clinical approval process, so the search should pause until those requirements are confirmed directly with the program.

As of July 21, 2026, the official links below identify MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate for the AGPCNP specialty at Stony Brook University. That supports directory inclusion and pathway labeling only. It does not authorize us to infer a practicum rule from a degree name.

• Official AGPCNP source 1, post-graduate certificate: Official page explicitly identifies the AGPCNP specialty (Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP) Advanced Certificate).
• Official AGPCNP source 2, MSN: Official page explicitly identifies the AGPCNP specialty (Master of Science, Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP)).
• Official AGPCNP source 3, DNP: Current official DNP program page lists Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner as a population focus.

These citations are included for verification, not as an endorsement of our service. Read the current official page and ask the program to confirm any requirement that affects the proposed preceptor or site.

Longitudinal reasoning is the thread that connects adult primary care and geriatrics. The student should be able to assess risk, manage stable or chronic problems, revisit treatment plans, coordinate care, and respond to changes within primary-care scope. The program retains the final decision on fit.

Potential settings include internal medicine, adult primary care, geriatrics, community health, long-term care, chronic disease management, and approved specialty primary-care practices. A setting name alone proves nothing. Patient mix, continuity, supervised activities, and course objectives must align before the program reviews it.

For this record, the official evidence names MSN, DNP, and post-graduate certificate. We use that verified label only to orient the request. The student's own course documents must supply the setting, population, competencies, dates, geography, and preceptor criteria.

Course objectives are the bridge between a pathway label and a workable placement. Pair each objective with the patient population, continuity, setting, and supervised activity it requires, then ask the program whether the proposed combination is eligible before treating it as final.

Two national benchmarks are often confused: the NTF recommendation of at least 750 direct patient care hours per NP population track and the 500 faculty-supervised clinical hour floor used in certification eligibility. A student's program can require or distribute hours differently. Ask Stony Brook University to confirm the actual AGPCNP total and approved balance.

Use the AGPCNP clinical hours guide for national context and the preceptor requirements guide for screening questions. Neither guide replaces the program's current instructions.

A board-certified adult-gerontology primary care NP is a direct search target. Another primary-care NP or an appropriately licensed physician may also fit when the role, population, setting, and supervision match the course. Stony Brook University decides whether any individual candidate is eligible.

Begin with the geography the program approves, not an assumption based on the Stony Brook campus listing. Primary-care capacity may be broader or narrower than the school location suggests. Every proposed clinician and site still needs program review.

For wider geographic context, read the AGPCNP placement guide for New York. It describes the state's adult primary-care and aging landscape without assigning a policy to Stony Brook University or claiming that a named practice accepts students.

• The exact course, clinical objectives, term dates, and remaining approved hours
• The approved geography, adult-gerontology population, continuity objectives, and setting
• The proposed clinician's license, certification, specialty, primary-care role and availability
• The site's practice setting, patient mix, and opportunities tied to the objectives
• Every current preceptor, site, compliance, and submission form supplied by the program

An approval-ready proposal identifies the clinician's credentials, current primary-care role, practice setting, patient population, availability, and connection to the course objectives. It also includes the forms supplied by the student. This organization supports review but cannot replace any program step.

Once the current checklist is clear, send the course, term dates, approved geography, required setting, patient population, remaining hours, candidate criteria, and forms. Our placement process uses that brief to look for a possible match before the program evaluates it.

AGPCNP Preceptor is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Stony Brook University. We cannot guarantee that a preceptor or site will be available, that paperwork will finish by a particular date, or that the program will approve a proposal. A request starts sourcing only.
