The Effectiveness Of The Supervision Styles

As a clinician, I work full time in a school and prn in the skilled nursing facilities. Being able to learn about the many topics of supervision throughout both semesters has been rewarding. Even though I have never supervised a student before, I will take the skills that I have learned and apply it into my work environment in the future. ASHA (2008) states an effective supervision facilitates the development of clinical competence in supervisees at all levels of practice, from students to certified clinicians. Clinical supervision is a collaborative process with shared responsibility for many of the activities involved in the supervisory experience. When supervising, I would collaborate with my supervisee(s) to make sure that we are one accord

The qualities of the mentor are an important element of the learning environment. This includes professional and personal qualities such as professionalism, a friendly nature, understanding and patience (Beskine 2009). Added to this the learner must be made to feel welcome through staff attitudes, this will help the learner to become integrated into the clinical environment (Hutchinson, 2003). Throughout the learning experience I felt that I had a strong professional relationship and that being ‘A’ ’s mentor being approachable and friendly enabled us to maintain a trusting relationship conducive to learning. This relationship, according to ‘A‘, reduced stress and anxiety. Locken and Norberg (2005) state that anxiety in students becomes reduced when mentors are able to build a good working relationship with their student and are able to work with them for almost all of their placement. One potential barrier in creating an effective

The service user should be in the centre of all supervision ensuring that they receive the best possible care .A key principle of supervision is for the supervisor to support the supervisee to understand the policies and standards of the home and what is expected of them to ensure they work to the highest of the standards .

1. This first clinic was a little intimidating. I mostly just shadowed some an older student today while he was interviewing patients. I felt like we have been well prepared to see patients though IPE and the standardized patients, however, knowing that these were real patients made it feel much different. Knowing that the patients had real problems and not knowing what to expect at first was the most anxious part.

Another method by which students may interact with the concept of reflection is through their practice supervisor. Clinical supervision emerged alongside performance management and provided emotional support, education and organisation in a triadic structure (Kadushkin, 1976). However, effective supervision is tough to locate due to responsibility and managerial approaches taking precedence over empathetic support and educatory purposes commonly associated with supervision (Gadsby- Waters, 1992; Lishman, 1998). The relationship between supervisor and practitioner can decrease the possibility of reflection happening within an ‘uncritical vacuum’ (Knott and Scragg, 2013; 118) and provides an alternative opinion on a situation that may open

For the purpose of this essay, I have selected Gibbs (1988) Reflective Learning Cycle to reflect on an aspect of individual professional practice, which requires development in preparation for my role as a Registered Nurse. Gibbs (1988) Model of Reflection provides a clear description of a situation, analysis of feelings, evaluation of the experience, conclusion, and action plan to make sense of the experience to examine what you would do if the situation happens again.

However, I believe many people felt somewhat embarrassed if they didn’t understand something. I now realize that asking questions in this lab was what got me so comfortable with taking people's pulse and temperature. I don’t think I fully comprehended how well our tutor would teach us this skill in the lab. On reflection, it was this in-depth tutoring that made it so manageable to grasp these skills and made my confidence and the confidence of my classmates grow with each helping. On analyzing the lab, I accept that I was apprehensive about learning these new skills but I now know there was need to be apprehensive. Given that I briefly looked at the lecture notes and discussed the with one or two of my classmates before going in to learn these new skills in the clinical skills lab made it easier to learn and retain this

Supervision is practised widely in Health and Social care industry and also mental health professionals. Supervision involves regular meetings, reflection and monitor the performance. There are various principles for example:

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. It allows us to reflect and consider outside training for extra support and guidance and the opportunity to refresh skills. Supervisions help build relationships with the individual and improve their quality of work and to give support to their

Within your first two weeks as an Adult Protective and Community Supervisor (APCS) you held an informal meeting with your staff so that they could get to know you and you them. This first meeting established the relationship that you wanted to have with your workers. This meeting also identified that you had an open door policy and that you were willing to assist your workers in any way possible. You encourage your workers to work at their optimal performance level and you stress to them that the only way to achieve this is by discussing policies, shadowing them on home visits, reviewing their cases and giving them feedback, which ensures that they have a clear understanding of programs and office operation. Candice you keep detailed notes of concerns that you may have with a worker and you discuss those concerns with me. You had one employee that you thought we were going to have to recommend probationary dismissal on; however, after you had a heart to heart with the employee you identified some personal issues that the employee was

Although books such as Lahad (2000) and Schuck & Wood (2011) much focused on creative arts based supervision, this books directs readers into exploring different types of supervision. It also emphasises on how supervision needs to be transformed and diversified in order to meet the demands of ever evolving modalities of integrative supervision. As for Carroll & Tholstrup (2011), new therapies of different techniques and approaches are being invented, demand for analogous supervision needs to be available for professions. Whilst different modalities of therapies are being developed they too generate interest into having different supervision approaches with in therapy related professions.

In the beginning, I was walking on eggshells afraid to make the wrong move. It was around 7:30 in the morning before any of the patients had arrive. I was introduced to all the coworkers. After that, I was shown to my desk. The office manager was the person who trained me. We started going over how to check patients in, answer phones, and verify insurances. When the first patient came in, I felt like a little mouse in a huge church hall. Whenever I tried to say something, I stumbled across my words. During our lunch

The aim of this essay is to discuss on how the reflection on mentorship will be undertaken, how and why the model of reflection will be used and the importance of confidentiality. I will reflect the mentorship by ensuring that the mentee during clinical practice is put at ease throughout the learning experience of four weeks (Quinn, and Hughes 2007, p. 29). Also, I will use the principle of Kolb’s learning cycle as my model of reflection because reflecting is an essential element of learning. As I am the mentor, I will follow this cycle in a clockwise direction with Jude, so she would have to reflect on the skills learnt by reviewing the whole situation (Kolb’s learning cycle 1984 in Rose and Best 2005, p.129). This would enable Jude to

Supervision strives to make the unit a good learning situation. It should be a teaching-learning process.
