  • Title: A mentor portfolio model for ensuring fitness for practice.
    Author: Jones S, Maxfield M, Levington A.
    Journal: Nurs Manag (Harrow); 2010 Mar; 16(10):28-31. PubMed ID: 20373653.
    Abstract:
    The revised Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) (2008) Standards to Support Learning and Assessment in Practice aim to support mentors in ensuring that new registrants are fit for practice. The standards also include criteria for sign-off mentors' competencies, which become mandatory this year. This article describes how 'mentor portfolios' can support mentors and help sign-off mentors meet the NMC criteria, and can be linked to the NHS knowledge and skills framework to enhance annual appraisals.
