Next #ACR22 #GlobalSummit session: mentoring & training the next generation
For now, a 15 min lunch break
And @sarakellahan
@sarakellahan .@RheumtoBloom on interdisciplinary mentorship in the rheum care team 🇬🇭
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
She tells a story about mentorship with mentee NP Sauda Issaka
A bit different from usual mentorship of medical students and trainees
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
🎯SMART goals included the ambitious one of having Sauda become the first rheumatology-trained nurse in the country
Involved coaching, sponsorship, and challenging tasks
⏱️Protected time was necessary too
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
👉This is a BIG point - the psychosocial function of the mentor
⭐️Building the competence and identity of the mentee in order for them to develop
⭐️Means that the goal is not for the mentee to become another copy of the mentor
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
And when the mentee becomes more independent?
The separation & redefinition stage ➡️includes building external mentors, and the mentee becoming the mentor
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
From the side of the mentee: Saudatu Issaka
The open relationship with @RheumtoBloom and dedicated time for teaching and mentorship was a turning point in her career development as a rheumatology nurse
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
@RheumtoBloom Highlighting research achievements, including use of mobile health for rheum disease monitoring
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
On a much larger scale: improved service delivery of rheum care in Ghana
AND the development of a support group called Rhesolute
#ACR22 #GlobalSummit
“You always learn from the mentee as well” - @RheumtoBloom
