| | Use supervision to raise the doctors awareness on human rights and ethical dilemmas | | 2005-8-29 13:56:53 Norwegian Centre for Violence and Trauma Sverre Varvin,Senior Researcher | In Norway specialist candidates are entitled to weekly supervision of 45-60 minutes duration.
The objectives of supervision are to stimulate the candidates learning potentials, make the candidate aware of problems, dilemmas and conflict, and develop a process where different solutions clinical problems may be discussed.
The supervisor shall help the candidate to clarify ethical and human rights dilemmas and other problems the candidate faces and in dialogue with the candidate seek conscious and rational choices.
A supervision session can discuss topics like:
– Clinical issues
– How to deal with emotions in relations with the patients
– Ethical and human rights dilemmas in clinical practice
– Problems in relation to colleagues
– Career questions
This presentation will give a presentation of clinical supervision as it is practiced in Norway, its organization, aims and objectives. I will further discuss how clinical problems may be elaborated and clarified in a supervisory setting especially those related to ethical and human rights problems, dilemmas and conflict of interest. I will end by discussing a vignette from a supervision session.
