A convergent parallel mixed\u2010methods evaluation was conducted, involving a longitudinal survey of wellbeing (pre\u2010 and post\u2010program) and semi\u2010structured interviews (60\u2009min). Repeated\u2010measures analyses were reported, and interviews were analysed thematically.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Of the 50 Nurse Unit Managers who participated in the program, 39 (78%) completed the baseline survey, and 25 completed the post\u2010education survey (36% attrition from baseline). Exploratory analyses suggest\n NUM<\/jats:styled-content>\n wellbeing may improve following\n CS<\/jats:styled-content>\n supervisor education. Twelve participants were interviewed. Five themes were constructed: (1) an opportunity for development, (2) valued and valuing, (3) connection, reflection and facilitation, (4) reality of practice, and (5) impact and influence. Integration across studies suggests peer group clinical supervision training and practice may be transformational for some and support a sense of connection and community across the organisation. Authentic and sustained organisational and structural support for both the training and subsequent practice was considered essential. Embedding expectations and governance processes into standards of practice, both from the Nurse Unit Managers and nursing leadership, was considered fundamental for sustainability.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n An innovative approach to implementing clinical supervision for nurse unit managers may contribute to supportive and connected Nurse Unit Manager communities.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Patient or Public Contribution<\/jats:title>\n No patients, service users, caregivers, or members of the public were involved in this study. Instead, this study was focused on the experiences and perceptions of nurses.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Reporting Method<\/jats:title>\n The study was reported according to the Good Reporting of A Mixed Methods Study (GRAMMS) guidelines.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Implications for the Profession<\/jats:title>\n Combining Clinical Supervision supervisor education and subsequent peer\u2010group Clinical Supervision could be a valuable strategy for enhancing Nurse Unit Manager job satisfaction, work relationships, and overall flourishing.
