lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




lk previous level of experience (e.g., an experienced operating room nurse chooses to now

lk practice in home health) is an example of a novice nurse. A proficient nurse perceives a
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




patient’s clinical situation as a whole, is able to assess an entire situation, and can readily
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




lk transfer knowledge gained from multiple previous experiences to a situation. A
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




competent nurse understands the organization and specific care required by the type of

lk patients (e.g., surgical, oncology, or orthopedic patients). This nurse is a competent
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




lk practitioner who is able to anticipate nursing care and establish long-range goals. A nurse
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




lk who has had some level of experience with the situation is an advanced beginner. This
lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk lk




lk experience may only be observational in nature, but the nurse is able to identify
