Clinical Nursing Supervision at Governmental Hospitals Gaza-Palestine.

      Аннотация: The literature indicates that clinical nursing supervision has a significant impact on the quality of nursing care. The overall aim of this study was to assess the clinical nursing supervision at governmental hospitals in Gaza governorates from the perspectives of both supervisors and supervisees in order to increase the effectiveness of the supervision processes and outcomes.The researcher used Proctor's three function interactive model of clinical supervision (restorative, normative and formative functions).The results show that the restorative function was the highest perceived function among both the supervisors (84.8%) and the supervisees (71.7%) while the formative function was the least positively perceived function by both supervisors (77.5%) and supervisees (63.8%). The formative function is the core function of the clinical supervision indicating that the current supervisory system in Gaza governmental hospitals is relatively administrative rather than clinical. The study recommends strengthening the clinical aspect of supervision, formulation of clinical supervision policy and promoting the use of supervisory tools such as checklists.
