Effective clinical supervision for regional allied health professionals: the supervisor's perspective.

Conclusions. The results identified AHP supervisors' perceptions of CS and possible improvements to CS processes, including differentiating CS from line management, protecting CS time and the provision of critical feedback. What is known about the topic? There are limited published reports about CS for AHPs, with AHP supervisor experience and knowledge not previously reported. What does the paper add? This is the first study to identify current supervisor understanding and practice of CS for AHPs. What are the implications for practitioners? CS is a valued activity, the effectiveness of which may be supported by education and resources. PMID: 23498922 [PubMed - in process]
