1 Preceptor Glossary of titles associated with Practice Education support roles used for Nursing and Midwifery in NHS Education for Scotland (NES) Mentoring Practice Teacher Education Supervisor Critical Companion Preceptor ASSESSOR Resource Facilitator Personal Coach Practice Education Facilitator Clinical Coach Facilitator
2 Mapping of Nursing and Midwifery Practice Education Support s A scoping exercise was undertaken to identify the terms used to describe the support role functions for individuals undertaking s of nursing and midwifery education developed by NHS Education for Scotland. The purpose of the support role/s related to each was described together with definitions from the and other sources. The findings highlight the multiplicity of support roles across nursing and midwifery s and also the variance in the function of each role, a fact that is supported in the by Lambert & Glacken (2004). It is also acknowledged that the definitions and meanings attached to these roles differ depending on the support needs of the learner and the context of the learning. This is most noted in the interchangeability of the use of the term mentor (Morton-Cooper, A.& Palmer, A. (2000), Bray, L. & Nettleton, P. (2007)) and was also evident in this scoping exercise. As a result of this exercise a matrix has been produced to assist developers of nursing and midwifery educational s to identify appropriate support role function/s which may provide some consistency of terminology for those who support learning in the workplace. The roles are presented below using three broad support functions as organising domains: personal support function, professional support function and regulatory/statutory support function. Personal support functions according to Morton-Cooper & Palmer (2000) are centred on individual growth and development and may include aspects such as providing help, advice, acting as a guide or role model and enabling or supporting others to achieve their potential. Professional support functions are normally fulfilled by practitioners who are experienced or skilled in a particular area/aspect of practice. This function may include aspects such as teaching and assessing, providing professional leadership, acting as a supervisor or a facilitator of learning. Regulatory/statutory functions are mandatory for s that are approved by bodies such as the Nursing/Midwifery Council or the Scottish Qualifications Authority. The responsible body will normally specify the nature and preparation of the support role required. Under each of these functions, specific support roles are identified and the purpose of the role described. While similar role descriptions are presented together, there is not necessarily any overlapping relationship between these roles. The relationship of each role with specific nursing and midwifery s and referenced sources can be found in Appendix 1. This document will remain as an electronic resource that will be updated annually by the practice education team. 2
3 Guidance on selecting appropriate titles for future educational support roles consider the nature of learning within the context of the nursing and midwifery educational solution being developed identify the actual or potential requirements for learners in relation to personal support, professional support or regulatory requirements select the most appropriate support function/s from the matrix of roles presented identify the support role title and justify the purpose of the selected role 3
