Board staff recommends 60-day supervisor reporting and form changes for supervisee termination
Summary
Deputy Executive Director Jennifer Lang urged the committee to require supervisors to report supervised hours within 60 days of supervision termination or completion and recommended adding safety-to-practice language to the termination form; the committee discussed sanctions and timeline before agreeing to retain supervision contracts five years.
During the committee’s review of regulatory edits, Deputy Executive Director Jennifer Lang recommended expanding reporting requirements so that all supervisors must submit supervised-hours reports within 60 days after the end of supervision or when a supervisee completes hours required for LCSW licensure. The May 22 minutes record Lang saying current draft requires reporting only when concerns arise and that a specific timeline will ensure timely information for the Board.
Teresa Reynolds requested adding explicit safety-to-practice language to the termination form; the committee also agreed supervision contracts should be retained for at least five years to support later verification of experience. Members discussed whether 60 days is sufficient and what consequences should exist for supervisors who refuse to sign off on hours; no specific sanction language was adopted at the meeting and staff will draft implementing guidance.
