Skills of Clinical Supervision for Nurses by Meg Bond
This is the first practical book on clinical supervision for nurses. It offers ways of understanding the context of clinical supervision in nursing, especially why it has taken so long to be seen as important, and pinpoints organizational and personal pitfalls that can sabotage its effectiveness. The book provides practical guidance for supervisees, emphasizing self-empowerment and developing the reflective skills necessary to make full use of clinical supervision. It offers clinical supervisors an in-depth look at their one-to-one and group facilitation skills and shows how to develop them. It gives guidance to managers on how to sponsor and co-ordinate systems of clinical supervision. While this book draws on theoretical literature on the subject of clinical supervision in nursing and allied professions, readers will also benefit from the authors' direct experience in participating, observing, training and consultancy in clinical supervision.
"..a user-friendly guide to the skills needed for effective clinical supervision...The strengths of the book are the way it sets out the rights and responsibilities of both parties involved in the supervision relationship; the step-by-step guidance to setting up systems of clinical supervision, and its focus on the reflective, supportive and catalytic skills needed for effective supervision." - Mental Health Care. "What is particularly good about the book is that it becomes clear on reading the book that the authorshave vast experience in this area. the book therefore arises from a very practical base and many worthwhile experiences and personal judgements are offered by the authors." - Nursing Review.
