Designing Competencies That Count

 

Administrators, managers, and clinical educators must develop practical, effective strategies for assessing staff competence in practice settings. Compliance with standards set forth by regulatory and accrediting agencies presents many challenges to healthcare facilities and clinicians.

This module provides supporting theories, practical applications, and insights into various components of competency assessment. Design tools, forms, policies, and procedures are used to illustrate how the competency-assessment process can be applied in any practice setting. ©2005.
