Article Abstract:
Research undertaken within National Health Service trusts in the UK indicates that there is widespread support among staff for clinical supervision. It has been found that clinical supervision provides a valuable opportunity for staff, especially those who have been appointed only recently, to assess their performance and discuss their uncertainties with more experienced colleagues. Clinical supervision plays a key role in allowing staff to draw a dividing line between their work and their personal experiences.

A comparative study of depot injection techniques
Article Abstract:
The administration of depot injections of neuroleptic drugs for psychiatric patients is very important. The drugs are given over a long time. It is therefore important to avoid seepage and prevent pain or irritation of the injection site. The air-bubble method of administration is better at preventing seepage than the Z-track.
