This popular book is the ideal companion text for all new and
trainee nurse mentors, providing unique strategies and ideas to
help devise and enhance learning opportunities for their
students.With a practical and accessible style, the book answers
the many questions that mentors may have about the mentoring role,
including: How can I create a good learning environment? What
should I include in my mentor's portfolio? How can I best support
failing students? The book includes plentiful case studies, tools
and interventions that you can use in clinical practice, and is
full of real insights from students and mentors. Fully updated in
this second edition the book includes new and additional coverage
on e-portfolios, undertaking student evaluations, conducting the
final interview, using evidence as a mentor, the best way to teach
skills in practice and how to demonstrate leadership skills as a
mentor."This book is essential reading for newly qualified nurses
intending to develop their professional skills by becoming mentors.
Well written in accessible language the book progresses logically
and comprehensively. It begins by setting the context of mentorship
within contemporary legislative and professional frameworks. The
chapters then develop to include the various contexts of learning,
essential core theories of learning, and insider tips on teaching
in the clinical environment.Of course, the mentor also has to
assess students as competent for practice and Danny goes on to
address this with good application to the professional context. He
illustrates strategies to obtain both a successful and a fair
assessment; and identifies an important part of assessment that
often is overlooked. That is how the formative aspects of
assessment complement the students' learning experience thus
closing the learning loop.The final section of this book focusses
on continuing good practice once qualified as a mentor and examines
strategies to develop and update skills within a continually
evolving professional framework. This book therefore provides a
comprehensive resource for both novice and experienced mentors." Dr
David Howard,Associate Professor,School of Health and Social
Care,The University of Lincoln, UK "This excellent handbook, is a
'must have' resource for all healthcare professionals who are
either embarking on a mentorship role or who are established in
their roles. It is a well written handbook that comprehensively
explores all aspects of mentorship." Dr. Eloise Pearson, Nursing
Lecturer / Honorary Theatre Practitioner, School of Nursing and
Midwifery, University of Dundee, UK
