ij beginnerANS: A ij ij

, A beginning nursing student or any nurse entering a situation in which there is no previous
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



level of experience (e.g., an experienced operating room nurse chooses to now practice in
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



home health) is an example of a novice nurse. A proficient nurse perceives a patient’s
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



clinicalsituation as a whole, is able to assess an entire situation, and can readily transfer
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



knowledge gained from multiple previous experiences to a situation. A competent nurse
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



understands the organization and specific care required by the type of patients (e.g., surgical,
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



oncology, or orthopedic patients). This nurse is a competent practitioner who is able to
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



anticipate nursing care and establish long-range goals. A nurse who has had some level of
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



experience with the situation is an advanced beginner. This experience may only be
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



observational in nature, but the nurse is able to identify meaningful aspects or principles of
ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij ij



nursing care.
