title: Clinical supervision: the art of being supervised.
abstract: Clinical supervision has been described as being of paramount importance to the development of nursing (Bishop 1994). It is now accepted that clinical supervision is an integral part of nursing practice (Waterworth et al 1997). This article summarises the pre-requisites for successful supervision and emphasises the role of the practitioner in the scheme (UKCC 1996). The author suggests how supervisees can influence the type and quality of their supervision.
