The ANAMASS Mary A. Manning Mentoring Award was established by ANA Massachusetts member and past president Karen Daley to support and encourage mentoring activities. This monetary award in the amount of $500 is given annually to a nurse who exemplifies the ideal image of a mentor and has established a record of consistent outreach to nurses in practice or in the pursuit of advanced education.
The ideal candidate should have a record of achievement in offering guidance to and fostering development among nursing professionals over a number of years. Nominees may also include individuals who have contributed to support or development of mentoring programs within their organization, institution or practice community.
ANAMASS membership is not required for this award but the nominator must be an ANAMASS member.
Amount of Award: $500
This Award is presented each year at the ANAMASS Awards/FNAMA Scholarship Gala held in early spring. Award recipients are asked to serve on the selection committee for the following year’s awards.
