Ongoing Professional Performance Evaluation: Advanced Practice Registered Nurse Practice Competency Assessment

摘要

The Ongoing Professional Performance Evaluation and the Focused Professional Practice Evaluation have been required by The Joint Commission for providers, including advanced practice registered nurses, who are credentialed and privileged in an accredited hospital. There are 6 required domains for these evaluations. The objective of these evaluations is to monitor for competence in the credentialing and privileging process for hospitals. The 6 domains come from medical education competencies. Nursing must develop a set of competencies to measure the performance of advanced practice registered nurses or continue to be measured by physician metrics.
