SUPERVISION

TARGET GROUP

Participants who have attended IPV/SV training and have contact with patients experiencing such violence.

WHEN TO APPLY

After the training course at regular intervals (adjusted to setting, need and frequency of cases).

AIM

To emotionally support staff working with patients experiencing domestic/sexual violence.

MATERIALS REQUIRED

1. External supervisor (or internal if available and not compromising confidentiality/staff management etc.).
2. A private room.
3. Staff need to be able to attend in work time.

TIME REQUIRED

1 hour per meeting.

Regular sessions should be offered, depending on frequency and need. They should be offered regardless of initial take-up/interest expressed as take-up/need often increases over time.

DESCRIPTION

A suitably trained supervisor (also knowledgeable in violence against women issues) provides 1-2-1 supervision sessions.
 
During the sessions participants can talk about their emotions and how the issue may affect them personally. Ways of coping can be developed and supported. Difficult cases or situations may be discussed too, however the focus should be on the participants’ feelings and coping strategies.

 

Unless there is a cause for concern the issues discussed should remain confidential to the supervisor and participant. Supervision should be paid for by the organisation.

 

Where suitable group supervision may be helpful too.
