Resilience Based Clinical Supervision (RBCS) is a model of supervision for anyone whose role is influenced by the emotional consequences of demands at work or in their personal life.
Find out how we can support Hospice UK member organisations to deliver the RBCS model.
This video, produced by the Foundation of Nursing Studies (FoNS), the University of Nottingham and the Burdett Trust for Nursing, gives a short summary of what RBCS is and how it can benefit your workforce.
The Foundation of Nursing Studies (FoNS), offers training programmes in RBCS which focus on the emotional wellbeing of all staff and creating a sustainable, compassionate service for patients and families.
Visit the FoNS website to for more information and to book your place on a training course.
Once initial facilitators have been trained in RBCS, they can cascade the model within your organisation. This enables and empowers teams to offer peer-led sessions that complement any existing wellbeing strategies at your hospice.
Funding support
Members of Hospice UK may be eligible for a professional development grant from the Masonic Foundation to support them to undertake this course.
When making an application for this funding, it is important to be specific in your free text answers. Mention how the model would work in your hospice and the benefit to staff and patients.
All trained RBCS facilitators are invited to join our RBCS Community of Practice for ongoing peer support.
Group sessions take place quarterly via MS Teams. Meetings will either take the form of a reflective discussion, or be topic based. There will be opportunities for members to actively take part in the planning and delivery of these sessions.

RBCS workshop: Building Capacity, Enabling Sustainability
Text
People who have previously completed RBCS Participatory Learning training via Hospice UK and the FoNS are invited to join a new, two-part workshop.
This workshop will take place on:
Thursday 2 October, 13:00 - 17:00
Wednesday 8 October, 09.30 – 13.30
This workshop has been designed to support people to train and develop your own facilitators. It is essential that participants attend both parts of the training.
Our goal is to provide the knowledge and resources needed to help you successfully grow capacity in your hospice to support implementation of the model, and enabling sustainability for the future.
The workshop will be delivered virtually.
This workshop is designed to support hospices to train their staff in RBCS. Participants must have completed the RBCS Participatory Learning training, via the Foundation of Nursing studies (FoNS) or Hospice UK and be familiar with the model to take part.
More than one person can attend from each hospice.
