There are several methods for conducting skills assessments in nursing:
Simulations: These are controlled environments where nurses can demonstrate their skills without risking patient safety. Simulations often use mannequins or computer programs to mimic real-life scenarios. Observed Practice: Nurses perform tasks under the supervision of experienced practitioners who assess their proficiency and provide feedback. Peer Review: Colleagues evaluate each other's skills, offering a collaborative approach to assessment and continuous improvement. Written Exams: These tests assess theoretical knowledge and understanding of clinical guidelines and best practices.
