SUPERVISION

Presented by Dr David Powell

For timing: see programme on home page

Sponsored by Crossroads Antigua

The substance abuse and mental-health field is constantly changing. Staff needs training in an array of issues, e.g., co-occurring disorders, working in a cost-driven world, and new legal and ethical standards and requirements. Training resources are often limited. Clinical supervision is the cornerstone for staff development and quality assurance.

 This session provides a foundation for supervision of personnel. Based on The Blended Model of Clinical Supervision published in Clinical Supervision in Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counseling, by Dr Powell, it fulfills the training requirements for certification in clinical supervision of the International Certification and reciprocity Consortium.

 This session is recommended for present and future supervisors. It is ideal for agencies to train their management staff.
