Abstract

The objective of this essay is to analyze the mentor role of a pre-registration student's placement in the field of district nursing. During the essay the student's true identity will not be revealed for reasons of confidentiality and so will be called Jane. Jane was due to start a six week preparation for practice placement within the community setting and the health center where I work had been chosen for her to undertake her learning experiences. As a specialist practitioner student I was asked to help in the mentoring of Jane, which was discussed with her on commencement in order to gain consent. According to the English National Board (ENB) (2001) the term mentor is used to denote the role of the nurse who facilitates learning and supervises and assesses students in the practice setting. The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) (2004) identifies eight mandatory standards that must be achieved to become a mentor. These are communication and working relationships, facilitation of learning, assessment, role modeling, creating an environment for learning, improving practice, knowledge base and course development.
