Zusammenfassung:
Supervision in the social sciences has been under scrutiny over the past decade. With the emergence of social service professions beyond social work, there has been a drive around each profession being supervised by senior members of its own profession. With a particular focus on South Africa, this insightful text meets the need for a succinct and inclusive source on for all three of the South African social service professions, offering an in-depth discussion of processes, functions and skills within the legal framework of professional supervision. Co-produced by an academic and practitioner, uplifting the voice of the practitioner that is not always heard, Supervision for the Social Service Professions provides critically needed clarifications on the concepts, elements, stages, skills and functions of supervision on an international level. Swanzen and Morokane provide the pathway for the establishment of an integrated model for supervision, informed by vast perspectives on supervision and best practice guidelines, aimed at a revised framework. A comprehensive, succinct, and useful tool in the hands of professionals and academics, this is a celebration of supervision in the social service professions which will ultimately lead to better care for vulnerable populations.
