Abstract

Nursing supervision is an important and indispensable administrative tool for the monitoring, evaluation and education of the nursing team towards a type of care that strives to approach the ideal. Current essay describes the nursing supervision as an instrument to promote quality care. A research was carried out in the Health Virtual Library and in the Google Scholar with regard to articles published between 2000 and 2010. Ten articles were found on the proposed theme. When performed adequately, nursing supervision contributes toward quality care, even though the authors report the existence of several items that impair its proper use. Faulty knowledge, inadequate preparation in college, lack of autonomy and overwork are among the items listed. Current research contributes towards the role of nurses within a systematic and precise context when the benefit of supervision is comprehended within their daily work. The necessity of favorable conditions and work division are also investigated for the exercise of a qualified nursing care.
