Clinical Supervision

Social Care Supervision refers to the strategies and body of service done within a social care plant in order to improve on the level of performance of the social care workers. Supervision is a critical idea in any social or structured society in which services of high quality and demand are being offered. Many social health care centers in the world are in need of equitable service delivery programs that will oversee a fruitful service reception by the clients. As such, Social Care Supervision refers to this body of knowledge and strategies used to support and instill hard work, quality delivery of products and services, together with a continuum of good delivery of goods and services to the clients (Gray & Brown 2010, p. 45-85).

I feel that this model utilize psychotherapy theory to apply similar techniques used with clients in the supervision setting, as a supervisor I would put emphasis on the importance of client-clinician, and clinician-supervisor relationship.

Although some clinicians can do it all, the skills set and knowledge needed to supervise a healthcare facility administratively may be far different from that needed to provide effective clinical supervision. To determine these differences and their implications for practice, this paper provides a review of the relevant literature to identify the difference between administrative and clinical supervision and the respective purpose, rights of the supervisee, and the importance of supervisor competence. A summary of the research and important findings are presented in the conclusion.

In the beginning of this activity, I did not know much about collaboration between different healthcare professionals. It helped me to clarify the meaning of a healthcare team and also to understand the role of different professionals in the team. Different team members have their specific roles and all of them work together to achieve a common goal –healthier patient. They work independently, but when it comes to decision making they seek advice from other healthcare provider in order to do the best for the patient. Not only doctor, physiotherapists, pharmacists and etc. are considered being part of the team. Patients must also be considered part of the decision making process,

Supervisors’ provide effective formative and summative feedback, promote growth and self-assessment in the trainee, and they also have to be able to conduct their own self-assessment. These skills encourage the trainee in the process of supervising. Clinical supervision is defined as: “An intervention that is provided by a senior member of a profession to a junior member or members of that profession. This relationship is evaluative, extends over time and has simultaneous purposes of enhancing the professional functioning of the junior member(s), monitoring the quality of professional services offered to the clients she, he or they see(s) and serving as a gatekeeper for those who are to enter the particular profession” (Bernard & Goodyear,

It is the obligation of each team of physician and PA to ensure that the PA’s scope of practice is identified, that delegation of medical tasks is appropriate to the PA’s level of competence and within the supervising physician’s scope of practice, and that the relationship and access to the supervising physician is defined.

Supervisions need to be on-going to be as effective as possible and gives the opportunity to reflect on the development of the staff member.

When team members come together in such a collaborative way, it promotes an atmosphere that allows discussions that can solve complex client health care problems, prevent errors, and allows the RN to act as an advocate for the client. In the plan of care when the RN is continuously reviewing the chart and client status, this collaboration is critical. It allows the RN to ensure that all disciplines involved in the clients care are up to date and doing their part to contribute to the expected goals. In most situations it is the responsibility of the RN to organize these collaborations when they believe a client could benefit from

Each member of the team is a coordinator/questioner, evaluator, elaborator, energizer, initiator and problem solver for different reasons. The roles of these team members vary and will briefly be discussed to give an overview of how important each member is to the team.
