A Practical Framework for Non-Clinical Supervision – The STS Supervision Model

Non-clinical supervision sessions at SCSS uses the STS Supervision Framework, and adapts it to focus on workplace wellbeing, professional reflection, staff resilience, and professional growth.

The STEP-UP Framework

The STS Supervision Model is based on the STEP-UP framework which provides a practical way to organise reflection and maintain focus on professional responsibilities and workplace situations. This model prioritises your individual wellbeing while ensuring safe, ethical practice through six key areas:

S - Support

A safe, confidential space to reflect on your values, emotions, and experiences. Validate challenges, strengthen resilience, and focus on your wellbeing.

T - Track

Explore practice issues such as ethics, risks, referrals, and boundaries. Build confidence in decision-making and professional accountability

E - Educate

Encourage continuous learning and growth. Set goals, reflect on skills, and practice ethical approaches in line with your role and responsibilities

P - Performance

Support professional development, career direction, networking, and progress toward goals. It is not a performance appraisal; it’s about reflection and growth

U - You (Self-Care)

Prioritise your wellbeing and work–life balance. Develop practical self-care routines that suit you, including rest, nutrition, supportive relationships, and relaxation

P - Practice

Reflect on your professional decisions and approaches. Build effective systems for time management and organisation, while ensuring alignment with workplace policies and best practice guidelines
