Objectives: To assess the implementation of a mentoring program for minor surgery skills in a Health Center. Design and methods: A descriptive transversal study in an urban health district with 16.000 inhabitants. Assessment of all operations performed the years 2009 to 2011, distinguishing those that have been supervised by an experienced physician, assessing: type of intervention, supervised staff, existence of informed consent and sending samples to pathology. Results: 363 operations in total (101 in 2009, 114 in 2010 and 148 in 2011), 45% tutored; no differences by years or by type of intervention (59% warts removal, 25% infiltration, 7% epidermal cysts). Mainly involved medical residents (96%), family physicians (62%) and nurses (29%). More surgical specimens are sent to pathology in the surgical acts mentored (83% vs 62%, p < 0.05 c2) as well as the completion of informed consents were improved. Conclusion: The system of training by mentoring in minor surgery skills can involve progressively the other professionals in the Health Center. Also, the mentoring increases the surgical procedures performed and improves the quality of the program. Harnessing the skills of those professionals working in primary care to train their peers can act as a catalyst to increase responsiveness and innovation.
