Peer mentoring refers to a network of support in which a more skilled or experienced person serves as a role model for a less skilled person for professional development and personal growth. Peer mentoring provides a support system that encourages self-confidence and increases self-worth for both the mentee and the mentor. The undergraduate student peer mentoring program in a large, Southeastern United States, university-based, 4-year school of nursing was created in response to a desire for more support conveyed by upper-level nursing students.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A model was developed whereby each incoming nursing student (Semester 1) would be paired with a senior nursing student (Semesters 3, 4, or 5). This mentoring dyad was then assigned to a faculty mentor who ensured that the mentoring relationship was functioning in accordance with established guidelines and provided support to both the student mentee and the student mentor.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The first cohort was comprised of 20 mentoring dyads. Subsequent cohorts have ranged from 20 to 45 mentoring dyads. To date, over 300 nursing students have participated in the undergraduate peer mentoring program. Based on feedback from student evaluation surveys, both mentors and mentees appreciate and find value in the program. Approximately 93% of student mentors indicated that they would have appreciated such a program when they were first semester nursing students.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Some of the challenges of navigating nursing programs are not related to lack of academic aptitude. Rather, other challenges, including lack of social support and soft skills needed to successfully complete the first and second semesters of nursing school. These are critical challenges that a peer mentor could help to meet.</p>","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10787314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: The objective of the study was to assess the barriers and facilitators, women health professionals face, when accessing the cervical cancer screening services. Research Method : This is a descriptive, cross-sectional , mixed method study. The participants of the study were female nurses from selected tertiary level hospital from Tamilnadu, India. For quantitative method, standardized validated tool was used with author’s permission. The participants participated were 125 in number. Qualitative interviews were conducted. Results: The result showed that the common perception about the pap-smear procedure was being uncomfortable, anxiety provoking and painful as expressed by (35.2%, 33.6 and 33.6%) respectively. This overall poor attitude and carelessness of the female nurses may greatly hamper the screening program. Major barriers for cervical cancer screening among the nurses were found to be as follows: 31.2% said Taking off Clothes for the screening procedure is considered as a barrier, 20% said they do not prefer the presence of male staff during the procedure and 20% said its time consuming. Conclusion: To conclude, if health care providers lack health awareness, they cannot motivate their patients to do the same. Thus, the initial step in breast and cervical cancer screening is health care providers should focus of their own health.","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87024308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The OSCE is comprised of several stations; examinees are expected to perform a variety of clinical tasks within a specified time period. Performing a variety of clinical skills, in the laboratory there by evaluating competency of skills is possible. Investigator had conducted this study to assess the knowledge and expressed practice of nursing tutors before and after administration of Structured Teaching Programme on OSCE. And to find out the correlation between post-test knowledge and post-test expressed practice score on OSCE among nursing tutors of selected self-finance nursing colleges.Methods: A pre-experimental research design was used for this study. For data collection, structured tools were prepared which consists of three parts, first part deals with demographic data, second and third part includes structured quantitative questionnaire. Simple random sampling technique was used to select potential participants. Total 50 participants were selected with chit and lottery method for this study. Results:The study revealed that mean post-test knowledge score (14.1) was higher than mean pre-test knowledge score (7.52). The mean post-test expressed practice score (8.1) was higher than mean pre-test expressed practice score (3.56). There is an existence of a positive correlation (r =0.66) between knowledge and expressed Practice.Conclusion: The participants gained knowledge after delivering structured teaching about OSCE. There is positive co-relation between knowledge and expressed practice.

The wide variation in terms of length of the programs, content covered, the ratio of theoretical to practical content, and the range of skills and competencies developed has implications for the individual and professional growth of MTRNs.
