Abstract
Background
Increasing demands on Inflammatory Bowel Disease Clinical Nurse Specialists (IBD-CNSs) can create overwhelming workloads, leading to stress and burnout.
Aim
To assess the potential for cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)-based clinical supervision to enhance IBD-CNS wellbeing.
Design
Using exploratory qualitative research we interviewed IBD-CNSs who had participated in CBT-based clinical supervision sessions delivered previously in one UK hospital by a psychotherapist. Interviews were audio-recorded, then transcribed and anonymised by an independent transcriptionist. Data were analysed thematically.
Findings
Four nurses participated. Four themes emerged: ‘Surprise benefits’, ‘Learning from others’, ‘Thinking differently to change self and practice’ and ‘Features of clinical supervision sessions.’ Participants found group CBT-based supervision helpful for thinking differently about work-related challenges; all wanted to continue but were concerned about accommodating clinical supervision in already-busy schedules.
Conclusions
Regular CBT-based clinical supervision has the potential to enhance wellbeing of IBD-CNSs. Further research with more participants can confirm these preliminary findings.
