A formal mentorship program helps support and develop clinicians to reach their full potential and provide optimal care for patients. This course is modeled after the Vizient mentorship curriculum.
Nurses who are interested in becoming a formal mentor must be approved by their unit leader(s) and exemplify the institution's SPIRIT values, mission, and vision while being a role model and high performer.
