Title Professional supervision for nurses and midwives Type Report
Year 1998 Publication Abbreviated Journal NZNO Library
Volume Issue Pages 53 pp
Keywords Professional Supervision; Clinical supervision
Abstract Report to the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust on Professional Supervision for registered Nurses and Midwives, May 1998.

Objective of Project:

To explore the extent of the development of a model of clinical supervision for nurses in the United Kingdom.

Some of the key points that emerged:

- Clinical supervision is a strong and accepted part of nursing culture in Britain. While not mandatory and not available to, or accepted by, all nurses, it is nevertheless generally known about and discussed at main nursing forums

- The strong support and directives coming from nursing leadership is a major factor in the adoption of clinical supervision as a developmental, support and quality control

- The increasing availability of resource material, courses, and in particular the investment made by the Department of Health and the Scottish Home and Health Office in funding a 23 site evaluation project has stimulated implementation of clinical supervision

Keywords Professional development; Clinical supervision; Nursing; Education
Abstract This article examines the concept of clinical supervision as “professional supervision”. Professional supervision contains many elements, is structured and not without effort. Fundamentally it is about being safe and professional. 'Reflective learning' and 'Live/tutorial' models are reviewed in different contexts for assisting nurses work through everyday issues, conflicts and problems of their role. The author concludes that regardless of which model is used there are benefits for safety and professionalism.

Title Determining competency for entry to nursing practice: A grounded theory study Type
Year 2008 Publication Abbreviated Journal ResearchArchive@Victoria
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Professional competence; Clinical supervision; Nursing; Education
Abstract Critical Comparative Nursing Assessment (CCNA) is a theory about how the competence of completing Bachelor of Nursing students in New Zealand is determined. Semi-structured, audio-taped interviews and field notes were used to collect data from twenty-seven nurses with experience in undertaking competency assessment. A Glaserian grounded theory approach was used to guide the data collection and analysis. This utilised the processes of constant comparative analysis, theoretical sampling and saturation to generate a middle range substantive grounded theory. This is presented as a model consisting of four emergent categories that explain how nurses formulate professional judgements about competence. These are a) gathering, which describes the processes used to collect evidence of practice to inform decisions; b) weighing up, which explains how evidence is analysed using the processes of benchmarking and comparative analysis; c) judging brings into focus the tensions inherent in making professional judgements about competence and how nurses formulated these, and d) moderating, which describes the processes nurses use to validate decisions and ensure that professional responsibilities and public safety are upheld. The basic social psychological process of comparing integrates these categories to explain how nurses resolve the tensions associated with making decisions about competence. This research presents a new way of viewing and understanding how nurses assess competence. It identifies where the challengers and tensions related to the assessment of competence lie and suggests strategies that if implemented, the author suggests could further enhance the validity and reliability of assessment outcomes.

Title The way things are done around here: Perceptions of clinical leadership in mental health nursing Type
Year 2006 Publication Abbreviated Journal coda, An Institutional Repository for the New Zealand ITP Sector
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Leadership; Psychiatric Nursing; Clinical supervision: Mental health
Abstract This research project explored nurses' perceptions of clinical leadership in mental health nursing practice. Within New Zealand no research exists that evaluates the role and impact the clinical leadership has in mental health nursing practice. From personal experience and discussion with colleagues the author argues that clinical leadership in terms of support and guidance for nurses is often minimal and that there is a relationship between qualities of clinical leadership and poor retention rates of mental health nurses. The prime objective of this study was to increase knowledge about clinical leadership in mental health nursing practice. This research used a quantitative descriptive methodology, utilising survey design. A questionnaire was used to rank the attributes of the person the respondents identified as a clinical leader. The data was collected from 30 registered nurses working in mental health settings within the central region of New Zealand. Findings indicate that there is room for improvement with regard to clinical leadership in mental health nursing practice. Clinical leadership is perceived to be more effective by nurses in their second year of practice and in community settings. A statistically significant difference was indicated between nurses in their second year of practice and nurses in their third year of practice in terms of their ranking of clinical leadership abilities. Overall the respondents perceived poor communication and poor attitude as the biggest barriers to effective leadership. Support and good role models were said to influence nursing practice positively and the skills that were identified as being helpful in assisting and retaining nurses were mentorship and good communication. The results of the study are discussed in relation to the literature on transformational leadership skills. Finally, the general limitations of the study are outlined and implications for future research are discussed.

Title An emancipatory praxis study of nursing students on clinical practicum in New Zealand: Pushed to the peripheries Type Journal Article
Year 2002 Publication Contemporary Nurse Abbreviated Journal
Volume 12 Issue 2 Pages 185-193
Keywords Nursing; Education; Clinical supervision; Preceptorship
Abstract The purpose of this qualitative study was to analyse the learning experiences of nine nursing students on clinical placement in New Zealand. The students were in their third and final year of their baccalaureate nursing degree. The study specifically examined what impinged upon their learning experience in the clinical venue. Data was obtained from interviewing the students, initially individually and finally in a focus group. Themes emerged through words and concepts as the data was analysed. The themes included powerlessness; marginalisation; the move from a holistic to a reductionist approach in care; the exploitation of minority students and the myth of praxis. Clinical practice was a time for nursing students to apply their knowledge to their practice, and to gain experience and confidence. Their clinical practice was normally a positive experience, but, each student spoke of the occasional negative episode. These left them with feelings of powerlessness and marginalisation. The Maori students felt exploited. The students were concerned about the lack of time to debrief at the end of the day, and to share their experiences with their educator and colleagues. The students' negative experiences were often the result of a clinical practitioner's high workload, under resourcing and the nurse educator's unavailability.

Title Disquiet in the development of clinical supervision for professional development in nursing practice: A literature review Type
Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal Victoria University of Wellington Library
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Clinical supervision; Professional development; Nursing
Abstract Nursing literature reflects that nurses have been exploring and experiencing the process of clinical supervision for well over a decade. Nurses in the United States, United Kingdom, Scandinavia, and Australasia have written much over the past fifteen years. However, the author notes that nurses grapple with what clinical supervision is within nursing development and disquiet continues to emerge in the literature. This literature review expands on themes that surround this disquiet. These centre on continued confusion and lack of clear definition; whether psychotherapy is implemented under the guise of clinical supervision, who uses it, and the dearth of empirical evaluation of its effectiveness. The lack of significant empirical evidence of its ability to assist practitioners to deliver improved patient/client care continues despite claims of improved professional and personal development, therapeutic relationship, and occupational stress management. These claims come from both supervisees and supervisors. The manner in which clinical supervision is portrayed in nursing in that it is frequently referred to as a support system, rather than one of learning a complex set of communication skills is also highlighted. The continued debate on what model(s) best suit nurses, or whether line management should provide clinical supervision as a means to ensure quality standards and control over nursing practice and optimal patient care is discussed. Whether nursing should stop borrowing from other fields and develop their own model(s) is also raised. Two emerging stances focus on a process that is practice-based as identified by senior staff and management, or one that continues along the lines of what psychotherapy has developed with practitioner-identified developmental needs. These issues raise many questions for further development in nursing, one being are nurses developed enough in their self-awareness to understand what they are to adopt into their practice? Authentic voices from those nurses experienced in the practice of providing and receiving clinical supervision, are shaping therapeutic practice for nurses in the future, and continue to sharpen the debate. Some reference to unpublished data and local practice in the Wellington area have been included as a stimulus for further incorporation of clinical supervision in local practice development.
