Abstract
In the face of an increasingly complex healthcare environment in the Capital, London Local Supervising Authority (LSA) undertook an anonymous online survey of all the Supervisors of Midwives (SoMs) (n=360) in London to understand whether it was meeting the needs of its supervisors, monitor whether supervisors had sufficient resources to fulfil their role ( Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), 2012 ), and what future direction the strategic development of supervisory support should take to ensure high quality statutory supervision was enabled in London. The survey had a 73% response rate and highlighted that SoMs greatly valued the personal support and education and development opportunities that they received from the LSA but were significantly concerned about fitness to practice issues and the impact of resources, most notably time, on the quality of the supervisory function.
