Section LXIII-701 - PrefaceA. This Chapter details reasonable minimal standards for supervised practice and establishes that the legal, administrative and professional responsibility of supervision rests with the licensed psychologist or medical psychologist licensed in accordance with R.S. 27:1360.51 et seq., designated as supervisor.B. The supervisory function serves a multiplicity of purposes. Supervision provides guidance in administrative issues in the practice setting, continues and expands education in skills, offers emotional support, and provides evaluation for purposes of the supervisee's growth, as well as administrative judgment relative to the supervisee's capacity for autonomous professional function. The supervisor assigns work, sets realistic standards for achievement and offers evaluation of the supervisee's performance. The supervisor offers a perspective on the relationship between the supervisee's assignment, the rest of the setting and the facilities available outside of the setting in order that the supervisee's professional procedures are intelligently placed within the context of all of the systems affecting and influencing the client. In addition to all of this, the supervisor must deal with those personal characteristics of the supervisee which either enhance or interfere with work efficiency. The private actions and behaviors of the supervisee which are not relevant to nor expressed in the work setting shall not be dealt with in the supervisory relationship. The supervisor shall limit supervision to those areas in which he/she has professional expertise, as well as develop the specialized skills necessary to render competent supervision.La. Admin.
