3. An experienced medical-surgical nurse chooses to work in obstetrics. Which level of proficiency is the
nurse upon initial transition to the obstetrical floor?
a. Novice
b. Proficient
c. Competent
d. Advanced beginner
ACCURATE ANSWER: A
A beginning nursing student or any nurse entering a situation in which there is no previous level of
experience (e.g., an experienced operating room nurse chooses to now practice in home health) is an
example of a novice nurse. A proficient nurse perceives a patient’s clinical situation as a whole, is able to
assess an entire situation, and can readily transfer knowledge gained from multiple previous experiences
to a situation. A competent nurse understands the organization and specific care required by the type of
patients (e.g., surgical, oncology, or orthopedic patients). This nurse is a competent practitioner who is
able to anticipate nursing care and establish long-range goals. A nurse who has had some level of
experience with the situation is an advanced beginner. This experience may only be observational in
nature, but the nurse is able to identify meaningful aspects or principles of nursing care.
