The Power of Mentoring: A Mentoring Program for Nurses in Transition
MARN invites RNs in Massachusetts to submit an application to be a mentor or mentee for this exciting statewide mentoring program. The program guided by Caring Theory, was funded by the American Nurses Association. Research has shown that mentoring makes a difference in nurses’ career satisfaction and success. Participants will be provided the unique opportunity to grow personally and professionally through one-to-one and group relationships.
The program key features:
· Mentor/mentee pairing will be guided by a self-selection process.
· Communication between mentor/mentee pairs will be flexible and self-designed to meet individual life styles.
· Mentors and mentees selected will be supported by an experienced mentoring coordinator.
· Applicants do not have to be a MARN member.
· Mentoring experience is not required.
· All qualified applicants will be considered.
