(2002) In Journal of Clinical Nursing 11(6). p.809-818- Abstract
Much has been written about models, aims and the concept of clinical group supervisional, although few studies are empirical or focus on intensive care. • The aim of the study was to illuminate the process and describe, using qualitative content analysis, the content of conversations carried out during the course of clinical group supervision sessions among Registered Nurses (RN) and enrolled nurses (EN) working in an intensive care unit (ICU). • During the supervision sessions, ENs talked about their life-world from a caring perspective, while RNs focused on their professional development.

Much has been written about models, aims and the concept of clinical group supervisional, although few studies are empirical or focus on intensive care. • The aim of the study was to illuminate the process and describe, using qualitative content analysis, the content of conversations carried out during the course of clinical group supervision sessions among Registered Nurses (RN) and enrolled nurses (EN) working in an intensive care unit (ICU). • During the supervision sessions, ENs talked about their life-world from a caring perspective, while RNs focused on their professional development. Both ENs and RNs regarded the supervision sessions as a space for relief and for sharing emotions and caring experiences, which helped to manage complex nursing care. • The findings are viewed in the light of Roach's theoretical framework describing the attributes of professional care as five Cs. Clinical group supervision is interpreted as supportive in developing interpersonal skills and a sensitive nursing practice.
