What is Clinical Supervision?
Continuously, a health professional’s developmental journey involves growth and learning. It is more than just classroom training, reading medical journals, and personal experiences; it involves a community. In serving health professionals like dietitians, clinical supervision plays a crucial role.
Clinical supervision is an arrangement that is structured and confidential. Where a supervisor provides guidance and support throughout the treatment of a patient.
Supervisors help bridge the gap from the classroom to the clinic by providing guidance, counseling, education, support, and encouragement. By sharing their own experiences, expertise, and ways of handling different needs for a variety of patients, they enhance the knowledge of a registered dietitian.
As a whole, clinical supervision provides an avenue to improve a dietitian’s practices, theories, approaches, nutrition counseling, consultation, and standards. To foster their personal and professional growth.
