Domain 2: Learning, Improving, Developing
Donna Frost, Using critical companionship outside negotiated situations
The framework is evidence based and was developed by Angie Titchen a physiotherapist who supported other health care professions to develop their own practice expertise as well as enabling others to learn, develop and improve in the workplace. The framework in Appendix 1 (below) is derived from the original evidence base but identifies the enablers that support critical companionship, the attributes that help you recognise what would be happening in a critical companionship relationship and the positive consequences for all. The symbol þ identifies the strategies that critical companions would use to support and enable others in their formal and informal learning, development and improvement activities.
Whist critical companionship is a sophisticated model, Michele Hardiman has teased out two steps towards becoming a critical companion first as a critical ally, and then as a critical friend.
