Clinical Supervision
Expert oversight, mentorship, and support for pharmacists and healthcare staff working in general practice and PCN settings.
Guiding Clinical Excellence, Building Confident Teams
Whether you’re onboarding newly qualified pharmacists or developing advanced practitioners, our Clinical Supervision service ensures your staff have the professional support they need to grow and deliver safe, effective care. We provide structured supervision that meets NHS requirements and supports best practice in clinical decision-making, prescribing, and patient interaction.
Our supervisors are experienced clinicians who guide, challenge, and empower your team—so they can perform with confidence and competence.
Key Features of Our Clinical Supervision Service
Designated Clinical Supervision (DCS): Full supervision aligned with NHS England’s requirements for newly qualified pharmacists and IPs (Independent Prescribers).
Tailored Support Plans: Individualised guidance based on the pharmacist’s level of experience, role expectations, and scope of practice.
Regular 1:1 Supervision Sessions: Structured meetings to review clinical cases, reflect on challenges, and reinforce learning.
Clinical Case Discussions & Escalation Support: Supervised review of complex or high-risk patient cases with clear escalation pathways.
Benefits to Healthcare Providers
Improved Clinical Quality: Regular supervision reduces the risk of clinical errors and promotes consistent, evidence-based care.
Staff Development & Retention: Clinicians who feel supported are more likely to grow in their roles and stay in your organisation longer.
Compliance with NHS Standards: Meets supervision requirements for ARRS-funded roles and supports IP development pathways.
Reduced GP Burden: Supervised pharmacists become more independent and competent, allowing GPs to delegate tasks more confidently.
Why Our Clinical Supervision Stands Out
We don’t just check boxes—we build clinical leaders. Our supervisors combine mentoring skills with real-world experience, helping pharmacists and clinicians evolve from task-doers to strategic care providers. With clear communication, reflective practice, and a supportive framework, we turn potential into performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. NHS England requires pharmacists working in primary care under ARRS funding to receive Designated Clinical Supervision, especially during their first year or while training as an Independent Prescriber.
We typically hold supervision sessions weekly or biweekly, depending on the clinician’s stage of development. We adapt the frequency based on your needs and NHS expectations.
