This article discusses the application of a structured approach to the development and implementation of preceptorship programmes with an evidence-based content to support newly qualified midwives (NQMs). The development of a programme of preceptorship for NQMs is discussed and recommendations made for current practice. All NHS trusts should consider how preceptorship programmes can be developed and implemented with a clear, robust audit trail to identify how allocated funding is used.
