When a student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor, our role is to source and document a possible match for Lewis-Clark State College review. The accreditation record does not identify pathway, modality, hours, or placement responsibility.

This snapshot identifies the institution and the accreditation evidence used for directory inclusion. It does not say that Lewis-Clark State College offers prelicensure, accelerated, RN-to-BSN, online, or another pathway. It also does not establish a field experience, hours, student sourcing, or site rules.
The CCNE source included Lewis-Clark State College in its accredited baccalaureate nursing records when this roster was checked on July 21, 2026. That establishes degree-level accreditation only. It does not establish a pathway, delivery format, field-experience requirement, hours, deadline, mentor rule, or placement model.
Do not begin with a generic BSN placement template. Ask the program to verify the pathway, course, required role, learning objectives, eligible setting, geography, credentials, paperwork, and whether a student-proposed candidate is allowed. That keeps outreach within the school's process.
If the student's confirmed pathway leads to initial RN licensure, the program generally coordinates clinical experiences. Begin with Lewis-Clark State College's assigned-placement process. An external search is suitable only when the current course documents explicitly allow the student to propose a site or preceptor for program review.
An RN-to-BSN or other post-licensure field experience may apply baccalaureate competencies in a community, population, education, leadership, quality, or coordination setting. Use that framework only after Lewis-Clark State College confirms the pathway, course, student proposal process, and current approval criteria.
A possible setting might be a public-health program, community clinic, school-health service, occupational-health team, home-health or hospice organization, nonprofit, care-coordination unit, quality team, or population-health service. A possible mentor might be an experienced registered nurse or another qualified professional whose role matches the course. The program decides eligibility.
Baccalaureate nursing practice requirements cannot be reduced to one reliable number. Hours vary with the state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Ask Lewis-Clark State College to confirm the student's current requirement in writing, then use that answer rather than an online comparison or a figure from another school.
Use the BSN hours overview for a general framework, not for a school-specific figure. A useful brief records the confirmed requirement, its learning purpose, the acceptable setting, the supervision method, and whether the program coordinates placement or permits a proposal.
Start the geographic plan with the student's authorized location, not an assumption drawn from Lewis-Clark State College's Lewiston address. The program may apply state, site, licensure, affiliation, or delivery rules that accreditation does not show. Every proposed setting still needs program approval.
For broader setting context, review the BSN field-experience guide for Idaho. It can help identify community and systems setting categories, while the student's current program remains the authority on whether a proposal is allowed and what is eligible.
An approval-ready file states who the proposed person is, what role that person would perform, where the work would occur, which course objectives the setting supports, and when supervision is available. It also includes the credentials and forms requested. Lewis-Clark State College may separately require agreements, compliance checks, or other review steps.
Before a candidate is contacted, verify the pathway, course, applied purpose, required hours, term dates, location authorization, eligible setting, candidate role, credentials, affiliation process, compliance checklist, forms, and school deadline. Confirm explicitly that the student may propose a person or site.
Our independent sourcing process starts with the verified requirement packet and explicit student-proposal permission. We look for a candidate whose role and setting appear aligned, document the facts, and submit them to the program's process. Use the request form when those instructions are ready.
This is independent support, not a service operated, approved, or endorsed by Lewis-Clark State College. We have no authority to accept a person or site and cannot promise that a suitable candidate will be available or that a proposal will pass program and site review.
It applies only when the student's current baccalaureate nursing course explicitly permits or requires the student to propose a community field-experience site, preceptor, or mentor. Lewis-Clark State College makes every approval decision.
No. The accreditation evidence establishes a baccalaureate nursing degree on the verification date. It does not prove prelicensure, accelerated, RN-to-BSN, modality, hours, field requirements, or placement policy.
There is no universal BSN clinical or field-experience total. Required hours vary by state, program, pathway, course, and catalog year. Confirm the current handbook, degree audit, course instructions, and placement office.
Traditional and accelerated prelicensure placements are generally program-coordinated. Use the school's current placement process. Outside sourcing is appropriate only if the program explicitly permits the student to propose a person or site for the current course.
No. BSNPreceptor is an independent service and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Lewis-Clark State College. We source and document possible candidates only when program instructions permit it, and we do not guarantee placement or approval.

Outside sourcing applies only when the current program explicitly permits or requires a student-proposed preceptor, mentor, or site. An advisor reviews the course instructions before candidate sourcing begins.
We do not guarantee placement. Final approval rests with your program.
