A Person-centred View of the Aim, Goals and Tasks in Clinical Supervision: Proposals on Topics for Experiential Learning
Journal Title: Journal of Advances in Medicine and Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 19, Issue 8
Abstract
Aim: This paper intends to highlight and review the traits of the person-centred clinical supervision model. This model is different to ‘mentoring’ supervision models. Specifically, the person-centred model has a minimal degree of directivity when compared to educative, teaching and judgemental supervision models, as the supervisor is not a ‘wise’ expert. S(he) works with trust, empathy, warmth, safety and genuineness within the supervisee’s frame of reference, thus facilitating the supervisee’s experiential learning and development. Discussion: Details of the aim, goals and tasks of person-centred supervision are explored, and the essential differences from other supervision models are discussed. Areas of ethical concern receive particular exploration. This paper proposes areas of experiential learning that would be helpful if elaborated within the supervisory context. Conclusion: The person-centred supervision model is focused on the supervisee’s personal and professional development. It necessitates a collaborative perspective to facilitate reflection and conceptualisation, trusting the supervisee’s internal power and resources.
