Expanding the skills needed in clinical supervision

Article Abstract:

Skills which are required in clinical supervision are active listening, which involves responding with body language to what the practitioner is saying, careful use of questioning, clarifying the person's understanding of what has been said and reflecting back what has been said. Getting practitioners to show how they behaved in a situation is another useful strategy because it gives them time to consider their actions. Supervisors need to be diplomatic and aware of how they are responding to others if clinical supervision is to be successful and unthreatening.

Taking counsel

Article Abstract:

Clinical supervision plays a key role in most conversational therapies and is of primary importance in the development of counselling practice skills for nurses. Some nurses may feel that supervision involves discipline and criticism and may make them suppress acknowledgement that they themselves need support. Some claim supervision should provide a support core to allow nurses to concentrate on their own weaknesses and strengths while continuing to learn. The interpretation of the dreams of terminally ill patients can be a useful part of counselling practice.

Conducting a research interview

Article Abstract:

Researchers conducting a research interview must make the interviewee feel at ease by introducing themselves, explaining the research topic, and ensuring the interviewee understands informed consent. The interviewee should feel able to contribute and should know they can leave if they wish. The environment must be welcoming and comfortable. The researcher should ensure the interviewee understands what has happened throughout the interview and has no worries about how it has been handled.
