The reality of working in social care is that continuous, quality work cannot be sustained alone. We can't depend on our initial training and qualification to sustain us throughout our career. The needs of service users, communities and organisations change and we're working in a system that demands more from us physically, emotionally and intellectually, while simultaneously working with fewer resources. We need to be learning on an ongoing basis to develop our skills, keep up with a changing world and to develop our own personal capacities for best practice. We also need to be supported to stay open to the emotionally demanding work that is social care. That's where professional supervision comes in. An experienced supervisor will be able to provide a safe supervisory environment for the social care worker to stand back and reflect on their work, a chance to further develop self-awareness, to gain learning from even the most difficult of situations and to feel supported in their work without judgement. Let me know in the comments if you receive professional supervision like this ⬇️ #socialcare #socialcarework #Socialcareworker #socialcareworkers #supportanddevelopment #professionalsupervision #clinicalsupervision
