A beginning nursing student or any nurse entering a situation in which there is no previous level of e
L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L 9




xperience (e.g., an experienced operating room nurse chooses to now practice in home health) is
L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9L 9 L 9 a
n example of a novice nurse. A proficient nurse perceives a patient’s clinical situation as a whole, is
L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L 9 a
ble to assess an entire situation, and can readily transfer knowledge gained from multiple previous e
L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L 9




xperiences to a situation. A competent nurse understands the organization and specific care require
L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9L 9




d by the type of patients (e.g., surgical, oncology, or orthopedic patients). This nurse is a
L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9




competent practitioner who is able to anticipate nursing care and establish long-
L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9




range goals. A nurse who has had some level of experience with the situation is an advanced beginn
L9 L9 L9 L 9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9




er. This experience may only be observational in nature, but the nurse is able to identify meaningful
L9 L9 L 9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9 L9




aspects or principles of nursing care.
