26. What did we find? We hypothesised that VIG might be considered a form of surveillance or control in a CP context What we found was: Participants found the experience of the teaching to be ‘luxurious’ and ‘nurturing’ Participants did not use the video, but used the ‘principles’ on ‘a daily basis’ Participants found that the teaching most helped them in their working relationships and communication, many used it as a tool for supervision Participants found it helped them to ‘get more information’ from clients Participants found it helped them reflect on their own behaviour and practice Participants did not immediately consider issues of surveillance or power but came to consider it as part of the interview ……to be followed up
