Supervision details
I have a long experience of mentoring in my previous NHS role and was also a supervisor of pharmacy pre-registration students. I have experience of supervising clinical/medical staff. My role as cpd facilitator for the Moray Alliance of Counsellors since 2014 has provided me with a very broad reach of the counselling profession having provided and sat through over 400 hours of cpd up to March 2020. As a supervisor, working with counsellors, I bring a wide and deep breadth of experience into the supervision sessions. For other professions such as medical, nursing, health visitor, social worker, the following might apply. As a member of the caring professions, your service contract might require you to undergo external supervision during your time of employment. Supervision is often understood to be a management tool to ensure compliance to the required standards pertinent to your role. However, External Clinical Supervision is about you. How are you really “being” as you work to optimise your delivery of care? What issues are you facing domestically and professionally that you would rather not discuss with your managers, spouse or partner? Often an exploration of your whole life & way of being alongside your professional processes can be very insightful, leading to empowerment and levels of fulfilment which have been previously absent. External Clinical Supervision helps you thrive and not just survive. For more details about myself supervision, see above or my website here https://c-3.uk
