    Abstract

    Quality allied health and nursing work–integrated placements are crucial to student progression and meeting the future workforce needs of remote and rural areas. Satisfaction with workplace supervision is strongly related to overall placement satisfaction,1 highlighting the importance of good supervision to the success of placements. Viability of placement programs depends on the willingness and capacity of clinicians to act in the supervisory role2 yet very little is known about placement challenges and enablers from the perspective of remote and rural clinical supervisors. This project was undertaken to investigate supervisors’ views of the support and resources required to enable them to provide quality student placements in the Northern Territory (NT).
