Supervision is widely promoted within occupational therapy, however a clear understanding of the factors which constitute high quality supervision is still emerging. The Manchester Clinical Supervision Scale-26© (MCSS-26©) (Winstanley and White, 2013) is useful in understanding supervisees’ satisfaction and perceived effectiveness with supervision. However, it provides less information regarding the content of supervision, and little clarity regarding enablers and barriers to effective supervision. Funding was provided by the Gold Coast Hospital and Health Service Private Practice Trust Fund and the study aimed to understand experiences of occupational therapists receiving and providing supervision. After receiving ethics approval participants were recruited via an email invitation to complete the MCSS-26© online (supervisees) and/or participate in semi-structured interviews (supervisees and supervisors). Thirty-one participants completed the MCSS-26© and 12 occupational therapists were interviewed. Quantitative data was analysed using descriptive statistics and using the scale scoring procedure. Interview data was transcribed verbatim and analysed thematically. MCSS-26© respondents considered supervision an important part of their work, that it positively impacted on their practice and that their supervisor helped them broaden their knowledge base. Participants from the interviews indicated that there were some tensions in participating in supervision such as dual manager/supervisor roles and prioritising supervision in relationships. The MCSS-26© indicated that supervisees felt satisfied with supervision sessions and that they were effective. The interviews indicated there were some conflicting experiences of the quality and content of supervision. Further analysis is required to accurately capture the experiences of occupational therapists in providing and receiving supervision.
