Link: NHS England - Supporting People in Early and Late Career
Legacy mentors are experienced nurses, or colleagues in other regulated professions, usually in late career, who provide coaching, mentoring and pastoral support to our NHS people who are at the start of their careers or who are newly appointed into the NHS.
They provide essential professional advice, education and guidance and pass on a ‘legacy’ to the next generation. They play a crucial role in supporting staff health and wellbeing and career progression.
Appointing legacy mentors ensures that we do not lose the valuable experience of colleagues in late career through retirement and provides a rewarding career opportunity which celebrates our experienced colleague’s contribution to the NHS.
With approximately a third of our NHS people currently in late career, legacy mentors can provide these colleagues an opportunity to extend their career while also supporting our NHS people at the start of their career to stay and stay well.
