Quality Supervision: Theory and Practice for Clinical Supervisors

by Dawn L. Best, Miranda L. Rose

Although books have been written about the theory of supervising and teaching students in the allied health professions, it remains a difficult task to assimilate the enormous variety of approaches and models into one's own practice as a health care supervisor or educator.
Here, the authors provide a much needed guide to developing and practising top-quality supervisory skills. Drawing on all the major theoretical approaches, they have written a user-friendly and thought-provoking manual that is packed with stimulating suggestions and insightful discussions.
Quality Supervision can be used in association with a workshop or for self-directed learning. The authors' own experience of running a postgraduate course at La Trobe University has enabled them to structure the information in a way that the reader will find most helpful. References, a helpful bibliography, and suggestions for further reading are provided at the end of each chapter, making this a comprehensive practical resource for all those involvedin education and supervision in the health care professions. It will include self-assessment and workbook elements High-quality author team
