LAC 46:LXIII.7303. Types of Supervision

A. Continuing Professional Supervision. Continuing professional supervision is the ongoing training and oversight for the procedure furnished under the supervisor’s overall direction and control, including maintenance of the necessary equipment and supplies. Supervision in this context does not require the supervisor’s presence during the performance of the procedure. However, the supervisor shall be available to the supervisee during the time when the supervisee is rendering professional services, or arrange the availability of a qualified substitute supervisor who is authorized to intervene with a client. Exceptions to this provision must have prior approval by the Board of Directors. B. General Professional Supervision. General professional supervision is direct supervisory contact between the supervisor and supervisee. Supervision in this context includes activities such as individual supervision, group supervision, specific case discussion and management, skill training, and professional development and review of the work completed by the supervisee.
