CE Course Description

Supervision is an essential component to ensuring quality services in clinical behavioral health. Regardless of a position a person holds, he or she will benefit greatly from quality clinical supervision. Clinical supervisory relationships are complex and must be nurtured and developed to be the most effective and therefore ensure the best patient care. It is essential for behavioral health providers who receive or provide clinical supervision to understand the impact of the supervisory relationship, the supervision process, and the outcomes it has. This course will review information regarding clinical supervision specific to the main positions held in behavioral health and in general. It will review relevant case studies regarding supervision in behavioral health.
