What are the responsibilities and job description for the Clinical Mentor-Nursing Workforce Transformation Program position at Parker Jewish Institute for Health Care and Rehabilitation?
Clinical Mentor-Full Time
Nursing Workforce Transformation Program
The Parker Jewish Institute for Healthcare and Rehabilitation, located in New Hyde Park, NY, is seeking a Full Time Clinical Mentor to join our team of dedicated staff working in the Nursing Workforce Transformation Program.
Parker's Superior Health Care Community of Practice (SHCCP) is an innovative clinical program that will train diverse Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), and Registered Nurses (RNs) to meet Parker's mission which is " to provide with compassion and dedication, superior quality health care and rehabilitation for adults." With this overarching idea, the project will be framed by a "community of practice" model, in which cohort members interact regularly to learn professional practices, become socialized into the culture of person-centered care, and come to see themselves as valuable, empowered community members who belong in healthcare. Supported by culturally and linguistically diverse staff/mentors, individual trainees become connected to the larger social order of the healthcare community. Access to professional/social networks give them knowledge, values, beliefs, and attitudes that are conducive to their professional empowerment and success; they contribute their own sociocultural and linguistic richness
The result will be improved quality of care, professional and economic growth for the employees, a stronger long term care workforce capable of meeting current and future demands, and increased capacity to train a diverse workforce.
For this program, we are seeking a full time Mentor to work collaboratively with the other members of the Workforce Transformation Program and collaboratively with the staff. As Mentor, you will be responsible for collaborating with the Community of Practice Director to provide mentoring and related training to all Participant Types.
