5.4 Effective Supervision: The Evidence Base

Research identifying the ‘nature of supervision’56 has dominated the supervision literature from other professional disciplines. However, research identifying ‘what supervision should be’57 (i.e. effective supervision) has gained traction and is considered in this part of the chapter.

Giddings summarises these benefits as follows:A review of literature from 15 different disciplines identified the following potential positive effects on supervisees of effective supervision: (1) improved communication skills, (2) enhanced professionalism, (3) improved patient care, (4) improved staff morale, (5) increased support, (6) increased confidence, and (7) stronger relationships with colleagues.58
