- Abstract
Person-centred care is an international healthcare priority. Strategies are needed to support nurses and midwives to understand the meaning of person-centredness and support them to embed this philosophy into practice. Clinical supervision has been proposed as a strategy to support this but requires more evidence. The aim of this research was to evaluate a newly developed model of clinical supervision, underpinned by person-centred practice theory, to enhance the person-centred practices of new graduate nurses and midwives. Design: Qualitative study (embedded within a mixed methods study) using focus groups Methods: Group, online clinical supervision (named C.A.R.E.) underpinned by the Person-centred Practice Framework was provided to 103 new graduate nurses and midwives once per month for one hour, over six months. The researchers used [Braun, V., & Clarke, V. (2022). Thematic analysis; A practical guide. SAGE]. Thematic Analysis to analyse data. Results: Twenty one participated in the qualitative evaluation. Four themes were identified (1) Person-centredness in Action (person-centredness experienced and delivered by the new graduates) (2) Enhancing the Transitioning Toolkit (professional and personal growth as an outcome of reflection and learning together) (3) The Transitioning Environment (care environment and C.A.R.E. environment) and (4) Challenges to C.A.R.E. (team and organisation, and personal). Conclusion: This supportive safe space allowed new graduates to explore their and other's practices, in relation to person-centred practice theory. Through sharing their experiences, they increased their knowledge and confidence to incorporate new learning into their own practice. This clinical supervision model underpinned by the Person-centred Practice Framework provides person-centred benefits to the new graduates, patients and families. However, without organisational support the benefits will not be realised.
