Abstract

Although pivotal to mentoring success, scant data on mentoring relationships continue to hamper the application of mentoring programs in nursing education. To address this gap and circumnavigate mentoring's context-specific nature, this narrative review analyzes the perspectives and opinions of nurse mentors and mentees. The aim is to identify common themes in their mentoring experiences to better nurture effective mentoring relationships and programs in nursing.
