Fully updated to comply with the latest Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and Health Professional Council (HPC) guidelines, this fourth edition of Supervision, Learning and Assessment in Clinical Practice (formerly Mentoring, Learning and Assessment in Clinical Practice) is an indispensable resource for clinical educators responsible for supervising and assessing nursing and allied health professional students. This book provides not only practical, evidence-based strategies for conducting fair and reliable assessments, but also delves into the theoretical foundations that support these practices. - Comprehensive Guidance: Practical strategies to manage the complexities and challenges of mentoring, learning, and assessing in clinical practice
- Focus on Accountability: Critical exploration of professional responsibility and accountability, including the legal ramifications surrounding clinical assessment
- Inclusive Education: Enhanced focus on meeting the needs of students with special requirements, including those with dyslexia, in compliance with the Disability Act of 2010
- Regulatory Alignment: Direct application for mentoring and assessment of health care students in professions regulated by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)
- Professional Conduct: New material on monitoring and assessing professional conduct and behaviours, including a comprehensive list of professional behaviours for assessment
- Addressing 'Failure to Fail': Practical advice on managing assessment problems, including when students need to be failed and why assessors often give underperforming students the benefit of the doubt
This book is essential reading for clinical educators who play a critical role in ensuring that only practitioners who are 'fit to practice'-those possessing the requisite skills, knowledge, and motivation-are approved for entry to the professional register. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or new to supervisory roles, Supervision, Learning and Assessment in Clinical Practice equips you with the tools and knowledge to support students effectively and maintain high standards of practice in clinical education.
