ANS: 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.
