title: The One-Minute Preceptor: a five-step tool to improve clinical teaching skills.
abstract: The One-Minute Preceptor (OMP) is a teaching tool that has been used successfully for over 10 years in family practice residency programs. It was designed to enhance the teaching skills of physicians involved in the clinical education of new residents. This article describes the five steps of the OMP and how it was taught to a group of nurse preceptors and reports their evaluations of the impact that this education had on their ability to instruct and offer feedback to the novice nurse.
