Guidance for mentors of student nurses and midwives : an RCN toolkit
This toolkit, published in October 2005 by the Royal College of Nursing (RCN), is designed for a mentor or associate mentor new to the role but can also act as a useful prompt and update for more experienced mentors. It looks at the role of the mentor and the support available for mentors, and provides guidance, including a placement checklist, on how to help students get the most out of their placements.

Mentor update : resource workbook
Produced by the University of Sheffield School of Nursing and Midwifery, the contents of this resource workbook have been developed for mentors of pre-registration students to assist them in keeping abreast of the key contemporary developments in the mentorship of students.
