Abstract

The role of the home visitation monitor in early childhood has been visible, and has emerged the importance of the relationship in that visit over the delivery of content or education. Thus highlights the need to work with the person of the visiting agent, beyond the necessary training, being necessary to generate a program that integrates both a constant training and a support maintained over time to the visiting agent. In the framework of the Fondecyt project 1100762 on Home Health Visits, a pilot program in home visit is generated that includes training, supervision and metasupervision that allow different levels of support and training to be guaranteed to the monitors. The present work focuses on the particular analysis of that metasupervision. A qualitative study is carried out using the Grounded Theory, sessions of metasupervision and two interviews, one with supervisor and one with metasupervisor are analized. From the analysis aspects of the revised theoretical models are confirmed, such as presence in metasupervision of aspects of reflexive supervision, such as reflection, collaboration and regularity. Emerging issues appear in relation to professional satisfaction and development of the supervised, influenced by the metasupervision. Finally, a critical reflection on the scope of the present study are made.
