Description
Reviews (0)

This unit is one of the four units required for the Pastoral Supervisor course. The unit CHCCSM006 Provide case management supervision, describes the skills and knowledge to take a leadership role in the delivery of quality case management. This includes disseminating information and providing advice on practice issues relating to case management within the organization. Workers at this level work autonomously and are responsible for their own outputs within broad but defined organization guidelines.

It is a secular course that is Christianised for relevance in Church ministry. The local church and its ministers are accountable to the same laws, legislation and principles as someone undertaking a supervisory role in a secular setting.

The unit applies to individuals who are pastors, in oversight of pastors, or who are training to be in a pastoral role. They will typically hold some responsibilities for the work of others and have some autonomy in relation to their own role.

Skills must have been demonstrated in the workplace with the addition of simulations and scenarios where the full range of contexts and situations have not been provided in the workplace. The following conditions must be met for this unit:

use of suitable facilities, equipment, and resources
modeling of industry operating conditions, including:
use of verbatims to reflect on own provision of pastoral and spiritual care under the mentoring of a qualified chaplain or pastoral and spiritual care worker
interactions with clients from a range of backgrounds under the supervision of a qualified chaplain or pastoral and spiritual care worker
