Abstract

Abstract COVID-19 restrictions prompted change to clinical placements for students, including a move to a remote supervision model where students, clinical educators, and patients were geographically remote from each other but connected via videoconferencing technology. A total of seven students and 11 clinical educators from occupational therapy and speech pathology participated in focus groups, reflecting on their experiences and perceptions of the rapid transition to remote supervision. Qualitative data were analyzed using a thematic analysis approach. No participants had experience with remote supervision prior to COVID-19. Three key themes were generated from the data: (a) key considerations, processes, and suggestions for remote supervision, (b) impact of remote supervision on relationship development, and (c) development of student professional competencies within the model. This study provides insights and practical considerations for implementing remote supervision and confirms this model can effectively meet students’ supervision needs and support the development of professional competencies.

联合医疗临床实习与远程监督模式:学生和临床教育工作者的看法

COVID-19限制促使学生改变临床实习，包括转向远程监督模式，在这种模式下，学生、临床教育工作者和患者在地理上彼此相距遥远，但通过视频会议技术进行连接。共有7名学生和11名来自职业治疗和言语病理学的临床教育工作者参加了焦点小组，反映了他们对快速过渡到远程监督的经验和看法。采用专题分析方法对定性数据进行分析。在COVID-19之前，没有参与者有远程监督的经验。从数据中产生了三个关键主题:(a)远程监督的关键考虑因素、过程和建议，(b)远程监督对关系发展的影响，以及(c)模型内学生专业能力的发展。本研究为实施远程监督提供了见解和实践思考，证实了该模式能够有效满足学生的监督需求，支持专业能力的发展。
