Nursing competencies are typically assessed through various methods to ensure comprehensive evaluation:
1. Written Exams: Testing theoretical knowledge through multiple-choice or essay questions. 2. Practical Exams: Assessing clinical skills through hands-on tasks and simulations. 3. Performance Reviews: Evaluating job performance based on feedback from supervisors, peers, and patients. 4. Portfolio: Compiling evidence of competencies such as certifications, training records, and reflective essays. 5. Self-Assessment: Encouraging nurses to reflect on their own skills and identify areas for growth. 6. Peer Review: Receiving constructive feedback from colleagues to enhance practice.
