The importance of honesty in clinical supervision Part 1. Developing and maintaining honest relationships

Sue Knutton Lecturer, School of nursing and midwifery, King’s College London
Jane Pover Lecturer, School of nursing and midwifery, King’s College London

In the first of two articles, Sue Knutton and Jane Pover explore the interdependence of honesty and challenge in clinical supervision. Aimed at practitioners working as supervisors, or who are supervised, it considers how honesty is inherent in the development of productive relationships

CLINICAL SUPERVISION is advocated in current government policies as a useful tool for continuing professional development (DoH 1999). It is also supported by professional bodies such as the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC 2001).
