Name
Contextualizing Supervision in Primary Care: Promoting Supervisee Development Through High-Quality Supervision
Description

This presentation will explore and synthesize the findings of three unique mixed-methods studies related to clinical supervision within the integrated primary care (IPC) context. Supervision is an imperative training and professional development experience for supervisees (SEEs) and novice clinicians, highlighting the importance of supervisors (SORs) accurately conceptualizing and contextualizing supervision for the IPC setting. This presentation will provide an overview of findings from studies highlighting SORs’ perceptions of facilitating cognitive complexity in SEEs, SOR competencies in IPC supervision, and SEE needs in IPC supervision. After reviewing the findings from these complementary studies, presenters will transition into an exploration of current practices and future directions for IPC supervision that combines SOR competencies, SEE needs, and strategies for enhancing cognitive complexity among SEEs in IPC settings. This presentation will end with a discussion of supervisory practices that can contribute to the provision of high-quality supervision for SEEs in IPC settings.
