Abstract |
The function and implementation of clinical supervision in the practice setting presents a number of challenges for new graduate programmes for registered comprehensive nurses. There have been numerous reports and papers promoting its benefits as important and providing the impetus for change. Clinical supervision has been well established as part of social work, counselling, psychotherapy and psychoanalytic practice, and in mental health nursing and midwifery. Its utilisation for graduate nurses is clearly important and should be seen as integral to professional practice. This study evaluated a programme of clinical supervision as a component of a new graduate nurse programme in a secondary health care practice environment. The clinical supervision component aimed to support graduate registered nurses' transition from the role of student nurse to staff nurse in the context of professional clinical practice. This report is also intended to inform the ongoing provision of clinical supervision at Hutt Valley District Health Board. The evaluation process was guided by the work of Owen (1990) and used utilisation focussed evaluation as the framework on which to undertake the evaluation. A mix of quantitative and qualitative methodology was used to collect and analyse the data. Data were collected from nurse graduates of the new graduate programme using a postal questionnaire that covered three areas; clinical supervision, the Hutt Valley District Health Board new graduate programme and an evaluation of stakeholder roles. Twelve of the new graduates responded to the survey. Findings suggest clinical supervision provided professional support and assisted the new graduate in the identification of education needs. Difficulties associated with accessing the structured component of the new graduate programme and clinical supervision were highlighted. The recommendations made to Hutt Valley District Health Board to improve the programme include considering accessibility, consumer rights, acceptability, a comprehensive approach, the Treaty of Waitangi, efficiency and a coordinated approach. |

Abstract |
The purpose of this paper is to shed some light on the concept of clinical supervision specifically in relation to mental health nursing. The author talks briefly about the naming and history of clinical supervision and aims to provide some clarity around defining the concept. There is discussion around the role, value and objectives of clinical supervision before critical examination of two models of clinical supervision within two different contexts. Finally the strengths and weaknesses of each model are discussed, and the differences illustrate some of the contextual factors of clinical supervision. |

Abstract |
Despite the widespread acceptance of the value of supervision among practitioners and the large quantity of literature on the topic, there is very little empirical evidence in relation to its effect on clinical practice. It is not clear whether supervision actually produces a change in clinician behaviour, or whether it produces benefits in terms of client outcomes. This thesis evaluates the impact of clinical supervision on five co-ordinators in a rural home care setting. It looks at the impact clinical supervision has on their practice and professional growth. The nurses all belong to one organisation, Access Homehealth Ltd. The study builds on the findings of a clinical supervision pilot, which was trialed within the organisation in 2002. The pilot examined which model of supervision was most beneficial for Access Homehealth staff. Clinical Supervision is defined as a designated interaction between two or more practitioners within a supportive environment, that enhances reflective practice and professionalism, which in turn contributes to improved practice and client outcomes. The methodology of this research was qualitative evaluation. The themes which emerged related to personal support, managing stress and alleviating feelings of isolation, reflection, enhancing practice, improved communication skills and the concept of clinical supervision as a safety net. Participants also revealed that one-on-one supervision appeared more helpful than group supervision, and that phone supervision facilitated in-depth dialogue. These findings are important, as they demonstrate it is feasible to simultaneously offer a number of formats of clinical supervision within one organisation, allowing for the organisation to provide what works best for different workers. They also show that clinical supervision is a valuable and useful support tool for home care co-ordinators in order to facilitate empowerment, reflection and growth in practice. Further research is needed to provide evidence of the benefits of supervision on improving client outcomes. |
