Clinical supervision is a critical component of safe, high-quality care both in medicine and dentistry, yet many clinicians undertake supervisory roles without formal training.
In this webinar, our panel will discuss the medico-legal foundations of effective supervision through practical, scenario-based discussion. The session will cover Ahpra’s new supervised practice standards, vicarious liability, AI scribes, telehealth and mandatory reporting. It will also explore requests from pharmacists and registered nurses to mentor or supervise them in relation to expanded prescribing.
