The aim of this study was to explore midwifery students and health visitor practice mentors experiences of a health visiting placement for midwifery students, focusing on the student-mentor relationship.
Interview study SETTING: East London, United Kingdom PARTICIPANTS: Eighteen students and eighteen mentors were invited to take part in an interview. Ten midwifery students (55.5%) and fifteen health visitor practice mentors (83.3%) took part in interviews or provided information via email. Thematic analysis was used to analyse findings.
The main study finding was that students reported valuing practice mentors who took the time to get to know them, were welcoming and enthusiastic and planned their time in advance. The mentors in turn spoke highly of the students who were keen and enthusiastic about the placement, but noted that not all students had appeared interested.
The findings from this small interview study show that taking time to make the students feel welcome was important to facilitate a student-mentor relationship. Another important factor in whether a student enjoyed their placement was the mentors' advance planning.

访谈研究
英国东伦敦
邀请了18名学生和18名导师参加访谈。10名助产专业学生(55.5%)和15名健康访视实习导师(83.3%)参加了访谈或通过电子邮件提供了信息。采用主题分析法对研究结果进行分析。
主要研究发现是,学生们表示重视那些花时间了解他们、热情友好且提前规划时间的实习导师。导师们反过来高度评价那些对实习充满热情的学生,但指出并非所有学生都表现出兴趣。
这项小型访谈研究的结果表明,花时间让学生感到受欢迎对于促进学生与导师的关系很重要。学生是否喜欢其实习安排的另一个重要因素是导师的提前规划。
