Forensic practitioners work in a diverse range of settings, with a
wide variety of groups and with a large number of agencies. Their
work, whilst rewarding, is challenging, demanding and often
undertaken in highly stressful situations. Ensuring that the
workforce is trained and supported is essential in order to
maintain skilful, knowledgeable, responsive and effective
practitioners. Whilst training, self-directed learning and peer
support all play a role, the need for supervision for practitioners
is increasingly being recognised. This text is aimed at all those
working in forensic settings who have direct contact with the
perpetrators and victims of crime and is written for both those new
to supervision and those with many years' experience. Specific
chapters focus on knowledge and skills for the supervisor and the
supervisee and on those responsible for developing supervision
systems for staff groups. This includes a focus on risk,
boundaries, approaches to learning and the evidence base for
supervision practice. Attention is also given to developing
supervision competence and combatting harmful or 'lousy'
supervision. The core text is supplemented by ten Special Topics
addressing single issues commonly faced in supervision practice,
such as ethical issues and reflective practice. The combination of
comprehensive chapters and a focus on specific issues through ten
Special Topics provides those involved in supervision with an
essential resource. This book is essential reading for supervisors,
students, managers and researchers who are involved or interested
in the supervision process.
