Clinical Supervision Training

“Supervision is the term used to describe a formal process of professional support and learning which enables practitioners to develop knowledge and competence, assume responsibility for their own practice and enhance consumer protection and the safety of care in complex clinical situations. It is central to the process of learning and to the expansion of the scope of practice and should be a means of encouraging self-assessment and analytic reflective skills.” – RCN, 2002

In this hour long video, Janet Thornley (GPN Strategic Lead of the BLMK Primary Care Training Hub) and Kirsty Shanley (Quality and Differential Attainment Lead, BLMK Primary Care Training Hub), discuss the concept of clinical supervision which provides a safe space for colleagues to come together to learn and reflect.

This video will cover:
– The context of Clinical Supervision and why we are doing it
– What is Clinical Supervision?
– Clinical Supervision theory
– Roles and responsibilities within Clinical Supervision

This video is aimed at all clinical and medical roles in Primary Care in Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes who are or will be providing clinical supervision. This includes: GPNs, Clinical Pharmacists, First Contact Physiotherapists, GPs, Paramedics etc. Please note that this video doesn’t cover the specific needs of those completing the Roadmaps to Practice but does compliment alongside the Roadmap supervision.
