Nursing group supervision has been a standard and now a self-evident element of the nursing education program since 1993. Over the years, its execution has remained essentially unchanged. The model, developed by Lisbeth Lindell, has undergone only minor revisions since its inception in 1993 (Lindell, 2014). What has changed over time is the number of sessions per semester that students can attend. Currently, students meet 2-4 times per semester (semesters 2-6), depending on whether they are in clinical practice (more sessions) or not. Initially, in the 1990s, students likely participated in four sessions per semester during all terms.

This report describes a systematic pedagogical process model for clinical supervision. The model is group-based and applicable both in theoretical and clinical training. This model is based on the group participants' experiences in care work aimed at integrating practical and theoretical knowledge. The emotional part of the nursing process refers to nurturing caregivers and supporting the development of personal and empirical professional knowledge. The model is based on group participants' self-perceived experiences in care work. The method of instruction is equally applicable to professionals in the same or different professions within healthcare. The model can further be used at moments of crisis or restructuring work at care facilities. The model can also be used in group supervision of patient/client groups based on different themes. The conversation method involves systematically accounting for a self-perceived situation or problem through questions, and it can also be used as a communication technique in dealing with individual patients and families.
