    Author: Bégat I, Severinsson E.
    Journal: J Nurs Manag; 2006 Nov; 14(8):610-6. PubMed ID: 17054734.
    Abstract:
    AIM: The aim of this study was to make a synthesis of three studies that deal with the following research question: 'How does clinical nursing supervision enhance nurses' experiences of well-being in relation to their psychosocial work environment?' BACKGROUND: Clinical nursing supervision is one way to support nurses in coping with their stressful work situation. METHOD: A hermeneutic approach was used to reflect and interpret nurses' experiences of well-being in relation to clinical nursing supervision and psychosocial work environment. RESULTS: The findings suggest that clinical nursing supervision has an influence on nurses' experiences of well-being and in relation to their psychosocial work environment. Nurses attending clinical nursing supervision reported increased satisfaction with their psychosocial work environment. CONCLUSIONS: The significance of caring and nursing becomes evident when nurses realize and understand that clinical nursing supervision positively influences their existence and well-being. The value of work becomes clear when nurses reflect on themselves as professionals and as authentic human beings in clinical nursing supervision. This will lead to the emergence of self-recognition.
