Understanding medical liability in the context of clinical supervision
Understanding medical liability in the context of clinical supervision
After attending this workshop, participants will understand the roles and responsibilities of both supervisors and learners. Open communication and trust is essential to safe medical care when delegating tasks to learners. We will also discuss what patients need to know within the clinical teaching environment.
