Supportive Clinical Supervision Av Derek L Milne, Robert P Reiser

Supportive Clinical Supervision is the first systemic, evidence-based guide to the principles and practices of restorative clinical supervision, an organisational tool for reducing employee stress, promoting positive outcomes, and enhancing the emotional well-being of people at work. It provides employees with a safe, confidential space to discuss the impact of work pressures, process challenging emotional aspects of their roles and reflect on work-life balance, and it is widely accepted as an effective means to maintain well-being and boost resilience in healthcare work. In practice, however, the availability of restorative supervision to workers is often haphazard or superficial, with the growing recognition of supervision s wider role in professional development yet to extend to its potential as a tool for enhancing staff well-being. Tackling this issue, Supportive Clinical Supervision presents the most up-to-date theory and practical guidance on how people cope with the diverse challenges they encounter in their work as healthcare professionals, and how their employers can help.
