Learning objectives, chapter summaries and reflective questions are also included to help readers reappraise what they have learned.
Mastering Mentorship will be essential reading for both those preparing to become nurse mentors at post-registration level and those already qualified to mentor.
This is a well written and easy to read book that provides a very clear overview of mentorship in health care. It is neatly broken down into accessible chapters based on the NMCs standards for mentorship in practice which is a boon for both instructors and students. I particularly liked the case studies provided for each chapter, these added context and provided inspiration for further thought. Students within the group have also found the reflective activities helpful in the development of their portfolios (an assessed component of the course)
Mastering mentorship is an essential guide for healthcare practitioners who are involved in the development of new students within the field of health and social care. Written with ease and accessibility few other books provide such an essential and effective guide for those who are given the responsibility ensuring that new students are equiped appropriately.
A sound book, but not keen on the layout. Is rather text heavy.
