  6. Clinical Supervision: Why do it? • Studies show that effective clinical supervision leads to improved well-being, confidence and self-awareness, reduces emotional strain and burnout, and individuals experience greater professional growth. • For the workforce it increases staff morale, job satisfaction, staff proficiency and retention of a more highly skilled workforce. • Studies also show that the positive impact that clinical supervision has is most likely a result of the training that supervisors receive, the quality of supervision they provide and the culture and managerial attitudes within the organisation. (White & Winstanley 2010).

  11. Supervision:Peer group • Peer group supervision usually refers to reciprocal arrangements in which peers work together for mutual benefit where developmental feedback is emphasised and self directed learning and evaluation is encouraged (Benshoff, J.M. 1992). • Increased access / frequency of supervision • Reciprocal learning through the sharing of experiences • Increased skills and responsibility for self assessment and • Decreased dependency on expert supervisors

  14. Interprofessional Supervision • Definition of IPE: • “Occasions when two or more professionals learn from, with and about each other to improve collaboration and the quality of care” • (Thistlethwaite, 2012; Reeves et al 2012) Footnote to go here

  15. Clinical Supervision: Interprofessional • World Health Organisation (2010) show that interprofessional teaching and supervision can prepare health professionals for team-based care or interprofessional collaborative practice (IPCP). • The benefits: • increased staff motivation, well-being and retention • decreases in staff turnover • increased patient satisfaction • increased patient safety • increases in appropriate use of specialist clinical resources • reductions in patient mortality and critical incidents • increases in access to and coordination of health services • enhances the learners understanding of other professionals roles and responsibilities • fosters mutual respect • promotes teamwork and collaboration Footnote to go here

  18. Interprofessional Supervision • Studies suggest that in the interprofessional context, supervision from educators whose profession differs from that of the students can be a beneficial and rewarding experience for students and that a supportive, clinician-focused, content-oriented supervision offered by knowledgeable and skilled clinical experts has been perceived as beneficial, regardless of the supervisor’s profession (Townend 2005, Chipchase 2012). • Draw upon the strengths of your interprofessional colleagues • Diversification of staff supervision • Collaboration, communication and consultation Footnote to go here

The videoed scenarios, case studies, role plays and group discussions were considered the most effective and constructive.
