Faculty mentorship: support for nurse practitioner students and staff within the rural community health setting
Abstract:
As pointed out in the introduction, there are certain practical concepts within our base of nursing knowledge that can only be taught through experience. Many things are easier to teach by example. As we turn back the clock in nursing, we can see how Florence Nightingale, Clara Barton, and Lillian Wald were role models to their nursing peers in their era. They taught nursing by example, by role modeling their clinical expertise. Today, this model is still effective and faculty mentoring of nurse practitioner students and CHNs in a compassionate and collegial leadership results in higher quality of health care for our nation's needy clients and their families. But greater yet are the opportunities for flexible nurse practitioner faculty practice and personal interactions on many levels for nursing faculty who wish to share their expertise. Mentorship by nurse practitioner faculty for nurse practitioner students and CHNs in a rural clinical setting has revealed many positive aspects in providing quality care for rural clients and growth for nurses. Exposure to the rural community health system helps us, as nurses, to identify the many strengths it possesses for innovative rural nursing practice.
