"Clinical supervision"

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) plays an important role in the management of symptomatic patients with chronic respiratory diseases (CRD). While studies have investigated the feasibility and efficacy of virtual PR (VPR), it is important to understand the experiences of patients and healthcare providers (HCPs) during the rapid digital health transformation that occurred in the COVID-19 pandemic. OBJECTIVES: To explore the experiences and perspectives of patients and HCPs who participated in VPR during the pandemic...

MATERIALS AND METHODS: This 3-year prospective cohort study enrolled junior doctors who graduated from 2 medical schools in June 2019 in Taiwan...

BACKGROUND: The nursing process is a systematic method for identifying the patient's problems and planning to resolve them. It is also a crucial pillar of high-quality nursing care. Nursing internship students may lack the necessary skills to implement the nursing process due to the increased independence, the absence of constant professorial supervision, and limited experience. The clinical supervision model is a method of clinical education that bridges the gap between theory and practice...

METHODS: The qualitative study involved adapting the Clinical Supervision Skills Review Tool (CSRT), a clinician-validated tool...

BACKGROUND: High-quality implementation evaluations report on intervention fidelity and adaptations made, but a practical process for evaluating implementation strategies is needed. A retrospective method for evaluating implementation strategies is also required as prospective methods can be resource intensive. This study aimed to establish an implementation strategy postmortem method to identify the implementation strategies used, when, and their perceived importance. We used the rural Transitions Nurse Program (TNP) as a case study, a national care coordination intervention implemented at 11 hospitals over three years...

DATA SOURCES: Qualitative studies obtained from Medline, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Scopus, Emcare and ERIC databases and ProQuest dissertations and theses for peer-reviewed, published and unpublished studies from inception to July 2023...

OBJECTIVE: Clinical supervision of oncology clinicians by psycho-oncologists is an important means of psychosocial competence transfer and support. Research on this essential liaison activity remains scarce. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of supervision on oncology clinicians' feelings towards patients presented in supervision. METHODS: Oncology clinicians' (n = 23) feelings towards patients presented in supervision were assessed with the Feeling Word Checklist (FWC)...

This article presents the findings of an ongoing supervision group (founded in 1999) researching the after-effects of the Nazi period on people in psychotherapy in Germany today. The unacknowledged collective shadow hidden behind half-truths, prevarications, and silence itself prevents a genuine working through of the Nazi past. Patients' lack of knowledge concerning their families' own past leads to unconscious guilt, which often then leads to psychosomatic disturbances. But this is not only a problem in Germany...

BACKGROUND:  Speech-language therapists (SLTs) may recommend tube feeding even with minimal research evidence of its effectiveness, and an understanding of SLTs' perceived practices is warranted. OBJECTIVES:  To qualitatively describe a sample of South African SLTs' perceived practices regarding feeding tube placement in people with advanced dementia. METHOD:  Semi-structured online interviews were conducted via Microsoft Teams...

BACKGROUND: The professional role of a nurse anaesthetist involves taking a pedagogical approach towards students, including supervision during clinical practice. Although supervisors are facilitators of student learning, they are offered little training in adult learning principles. The aim of this study was to describe supervisors' experience of student nurse anaesthetist learning during clinical practice in the operating room. METHOD: In this qualitative interview study, 12 semi-structured individual interviews were carried out with clinical supervising nurse anaesthetists...

The entrustment framework redirects assessment from considering only trainees' competence to decision-making about their readiness to perform clinical tasks independently. Since trainees and supervisors both contribute to entrustment decisions, we examined the cognitive and affective factors that underly their negotiation of trust, and whether trainee demographic characteristics may bias them. Using a document analysis approach, we adapted large language models (LLMs) to examine feedback dialogs (N = 24,187, each with an associated entrustment rating) between medical student trainees and their clinical supervisors...

Developing teachers' professional identity is an ongoing process requiring multiple factors. However, the literature lacks a relationship between measures for clinical supervision practices and predictive indicators of teachers' professional identity development. Therefore, the study explored the opinions of school heads and teachers on measures for better school heads' clinical supervision practices and predictive indicators of teachers' professional identity development in Tanzania public secondary schools...

Open access databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar and the library healthcare databases Scopus and CINAHL were searched...

INTRODUCTION: International medical graduates (IMGs) account for 41% of the UK doctor's workforce but often work in isolated roles, receive minimal constructive feedback regarding their work and offered limited opportunities for career progression. We conducted a survey researching the views of IMGs or doctors from ethnic minority backgrounds on the support given to them. METHODS: A survey was carried out on physician demographics, grade and date of first NHS appointment, familiarity and support offered in NHS, induction and study leave, Professional and Linguistic Assessments Board exams and General Medical Council (GMC) referrals...

We introduce Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) as a potential framework for clinical training and assessment in genetic counseling. We discuss advantages of this approach, review how EPAs complement Practice-Based Competencies (PBCs), describe our process of generating proposed "core" EPAs, provide examples of specialty-specific EPAs, discuss the concept of entrustment in clinical training, and propose an approach to implementation.

PURPOSE: First contact practitioner (FCP) roles have been developed to supplement the primary care workforce in managing the burden of musculoskeletal conditions. In order to quality assure and standardise capability of these clinicians an educational framework was developed by NHS England. The Roadmap to Practice (2020) was the curriculum designed to support and develop capability for FCP roles. This secondary analysis of a broader research project aimed to understand the factors affecting the supervisory experience from both a supervisor and supervisee perspective...

The purpose of this study was to examine current clinical supervision practices within primary care settings. We used a descriptive survey design, which blends quantitative and qualitative data, and examined the current state of clinical supervision practices and approaches in primary care and the type of training the behavioral health consultants received to provide supervision to pre-licensure level behavioral health trainees. Ninety-four participants completed the survey in 2022. Seventy-one percent of respondents felt they had adequate training to be an effective integrated behavioral health (IBH) supervisor; however, most training came from sources, such as workshops, continuing education, or supervision of supervision...

There are limited studies regarding the attainment of the Accreditation Council for Genetic Counseling Practice-Based Competencies by genetic counseling students who complete clinical rotations in an in-person setting versus in a remote setting that incudes telephone and/or video patient encounters. This study explored the perceptions of 17 patient-facing genetic counselors who had served as supervisors for genetic counseling students regarding student attainment of practice-based competencies in in-person compared to remote rotations...
