Objective: To explore the benefits and challenges of administrative clinical supervision at the unit.Methods: Clinical Supervision has been recognised as a core component of professional support for present-day nursing and midwifery practice. Effective administrative clinical supervision is beneficial to employees by providing support leading to the development of self-esteem, reducing emotional stress and improving commitment to an organisation’s vision and goals. Using aesthetic phenomenological approach, nurses' lived experience with administrative clinical supervision in a clinical unit of the hospital was explored and allowed in-depth description of administrative clinical supervision thoroughly. The participants were purposively sampled from six hospitals in Accra and comprised supervisors (n = 18) and supervisees (n = 12).Results: The benefits of administrative clinical supervision include reduction in infection rates, improved competence, client satisfaction, reduction in negligence, efficiency, accountability and feeling of being appreciated. Challenges of administrative clinical supervision were managerial challenges, limited time, interpersonal conflict with colleagues, and increased workload.Conclusions: Practical Implications: Administrative clinical supervision has implications for nursing and midwifery education and practice. This calls for measures that promote practitioners’ personal and professional development through fostering a supportive relationship and working alliance. Originality: This study employed the use of Aesthetic Phenomenology to tell the stories of clinical supervision from the personified interpretations unlike other studies that simply adopt descriptive phenomenology. It is the first of its kind in Ghana to the best of our knowledge.

“…Literature identifies a range of benefits from the use of group supervision in professional practice with positive factors such as supporting individuals in their professional roles and responsibilities, sharing, and learning from each other's experiences and developing team-working and leadership skills being cited (O'Keeffe & James, 2014;Snowden et al, 2020). Group supervision was facilitated once a week using a tripartite approach where the students, project leads within the health board and two university practice education members met to reflect on and share progress and address learning needs.…”

The impact of COVID-19 has been harshly felt by occupational therapists in practice and students requiring practice education placements. A collaboration between Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (ABUHB) and Cardiff University enabled 10 undergraduate students to undertake their final placement by participating in a Digital Stories Project. This placement was innovatively designed to allow students to meet their learning objectives remotely, reducing clinical days in adherence to social distancing measures. The 'Get There Together' project was created by the national steering group after identifying the devastating impact COVID-19 had on people affected by dementia when accessing community occupations. The students collaborated with service users to identify areas that they wanted to visit, creating digital recordings explaining what to expect due to COVID-19 rules. This paper will focus on the conception and development of the Digital Stories Project, which helped increase placement capacity for occupational therapy students, during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…Peer approaches are differentiated from traditional supervision models in that there is no designated power, authority or hierarchical relationship [16]. Clinical supervision in medical education is crucial and desirable [16][17][18][19], but research on clinical supervision in groups of postgraduates working in the medical professions is sparse, although it has increased in recent years [1][2][3][4][20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

Background: In Denmark group supervision for general practitioners is an established part of continuing professional development. Several different approaches are used, including Balint Groups and Bendix Groups. The aim of this paper is to describe the benefits and challenges of a peer group supervision model with the role of supervisor taken by group members in turn. The setting was a group of general practitioners using a patient-centred consultation model and videorecordings of consultations. Methods and material: As part of a larger study the first author studied this long-established group by observing three group sessions over a period of six months. She conducted two individual, semistructured interviews with each general practitioner who presented consultations at the observed sessions, and held a group interview with the entire group at the end of the observation period. The interviews were recorded digitally and transcribed verbatim. The data were analysed using systematic text condensation. Results and conclusion: Participation seemed to improve communication skills and the ability to take a more patient-centred approach. It increased job satisfaction and prevented burnout. A nonjudgemental environment, respect and acknowledgement of all participants were important for developing confidence and for supporting personal and professional development.
