Educational supervision, assessment and feedback for pharmacists

Abstract

Workplace learning has formed part of preregistration training (now foundation training) for many years, and supervision of this is becoming more embedded into pharmacy education and development — both at foundation and advanced level. Effective supervision in pharmacy has been shown to improve the ability of trainees to manage challenges in the workplace and develop their roles?[1]?. It is important that pharmacists and pharmacy professionals develop the right knowledge and skills to effectively support and supervise trainees. Being a supervisor is very rewarding and provides an excellent opportunity for both personal and professional development.

This article will explain the different supervisor roles within pharmacy and the skills needed to be an effective supervisor.
