ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on the attempts to introduce clinical supervision within a

large NHS acute trust. It incorporates honest and open reflections which offer

an insight into the thoughts, feelings and behaviours of two nurses as they

tried to introduce supervision. The chapter describes the particular steps taken

in this process including the pilot project, the pilot phase and the evaluation of

this pilot. It also highlights the second phase of implementation and considers

the future for clinical supervision within the trust.
