Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Doctoral Training
  • Healthcare Professional Development

Background:

  • The transition from medical student to Foundation Year 1 (FY1) doctor involves significant stress and adaptation challenges.
  • Many new medical graduates report feeling unprepared for clinical practice.
  • Access to effective mentoring programs for resident doctors is inconsistent.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a national, peer-led mentoring scheme for incoming FY1 doctors.
  • To assess the engagement, perceived usefulness, and areas for improvement of the mentoring program.
  • To provide accessible support during the critical FY1 transition period.

Main Methods:

  • A national, peer-led mentoring scheme was established in partnership with Mind the Bleep.
  • Final-year medical students were matched with current FY1 doctors across two program cycles.
  • Participant feedback was collected post-cycle to evaluate program effectiveness and identify improvements.

Main Results:

  • The program successfully matched a significant number of mentees with mentors, with participant numbers increasing between cycles.
  • Mentees reported benefits including receiving practical advice and experiencing reduced anxiety.
  • Mentors found value in contributing to junior colleagues' development and reflecting on their own experiences. Mean usefulness ratings were between 3.25 and 3.93 out of 5.

Conclusions:

  • The national peer-led mentoring scheme provides valuable and accessible support for FY1 doctors.
  • The voluntary, peer-led model is feasible and sustainable with minimal administrative oversight.
  • Feedback indicates a need for enhanced matching strategies (e.g., geographical) and more structured guidance, which are being implemented.
