Journal of Nursing Management 2008 October
AIM: To describe supervisors' experiences of supervising nursing staff who care for older people in order to develop an understanding of the opportunities and limitations involved in supervision.
BACKGROUND: Little is known of what group supervision of nursing staff means for the supervisor, particularly in regards to care of the old.

CONCLUSIONS: Results point to the need for support for supervisors in order to enable them to develop their supervisory abilities and skills.
IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT: Support is of crucial importance for both the ability to supervise and the quality of supervision.
