Identifying CPD needs involves a reflective and strategic approach:
Self-Assessment: Nurses should regularly assess their own knowledge, skills, and competencies to identify areas of improvement. Feedback: Constructive feedback from peers, supervisors, and patients can highlight areas where further development is needed. Professional Goals: Setting career goals can guide the selection of relevant CPD activities that align with personal and professional aspirations. Regulatory Requirements: Understanding the CPD requirements set by regulatory bodies ensures compliance and helps in planning appropriate activities.
