Connect, Pause and Reflect group session guide

The Connect, Pause and Reflect reflective practice sessions:

• foster a culture of reflection rather than teaching, advice-giving, correcting, problem-solving or attempting to fix others
• focus on the shared experience of delivering care
• are a supportive meeting of equals where all members contribute and feel valued
• aim to empower clinicians, increase insight, reduce isolation and promote personal and professional growth
• make space for alternative perspectives, shared understanding, trust and openness
• are not intended to be therapy sessions, even though sessions may be therapeutic and meet the restorative needs of clinicians
• are not the forum to discuss issues around internal politics, operational issues, process or policy. 

If you or someone in your team would like to facilitate a group session, refer to the information on how to set up and run the sessions.
