Words of wisdom.
Most students experience good and bad mentoring throughout their training. Bad mentors can cause serious problems further down the line, particularly if they 'fail to fail' incompetent students. However, the pressure on mentors is immense and students may not have realistic expectations. The Nursing and Midwifery Council and the RCN are introducing measures to improve the overall experience of mentoring.
