Qualified nurses report satisfaction with clinical supervision, though senior staff benefit more. Discrepancies exist in supervision delivery and its perceived effectiveness for enhancing nursing practice.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Practice
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Assessing qualified nursing staff satisfaction with clinical supervision is crucial for service development.
  • Understanding the impact of supervision on motivation, skills, confidence, and stress is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the satisfaction and quality of clinical supervision among qualified nurses.
  • To determine if clinical supervision affects motivation, skills, confidence, and stress levels.
  • To compare perceptions of clinical supervision between junior (D/E grade) and senior (F grade and above) nurses.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective, cross-sectional survey design was employed.
  • A Likert-scaled questionnaire was administered to 50 qualified nursing staff across five clinical divisions.

  • A response rate of 70% (35 participants) was achieved after one month.
  • Main Results:

    • Most nurses receive regular clinical supervision within a defined timeframe.
    • Senior nursing staff report higher satisfaction and greater benefit from regular supervision compared to junior staff.
    • The overall quality of clinical supervision is perceived as good by most participants.

    Conclusions:

    • A high number of qualified nurses receive clinical supervision, indicating a positive aspect of service provision.
    • Discrepancies were noted regarding the distribution and timing of supervision.
    • Further investigation is needed to understand why some nurses feel supervision does not enhance their effectiveness.
