The nurse who is being mentored knows that which phase of the mentoring relationship deals with plan implementation and achieving professional development goals?
A) Cultivation during years 2-5
B) Initiation during months 6-12
C) Redefinition during years 6-12
D) Separation during months 5-24
Answer: A
Participating in a mentoring relationship requires the work and time of both the mentor and protégé involved. The mentee and mentor can follow four phases when working with each other to achieve the best outcomes for both parties: initiation (6-12 months) where expectations are discussed, goals and objectives are set, and a plan is developed; cultivation (2-5 years), where the plan is implemented and assistance is received for achievement with professional development goals and expectations; separation (6-24 months following relationship change), where the relationship changes from protégé to peer, a job changes, independence occurs, or someone moves away; and redefinition (follows separation) where the relationship is redefined and either continues or slowly dissolves over time.
