Remote and Indigenous communities

As mentioned previously, clinical supervision has not been regarded as an essential part of a nurse’s professional development. Factors such as workplace culture, organisational factors, time, an appropriate location, and the availability of technology, for instance Wi-Fi and computers, all act as potential barriers. For nurses working in remote settings and with indigenous communities, this is particularly relevant. However, themes of an increase in skills, knowledge, professional enthusiasm, commitment, and confidence, combined with a reduced sense of isolation, all point to the potential benefits of supervision (3, 7).
