20.6.4: Competency-Based Assessments

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

Competency-Based Assessments

1 .
Develop a fifteen-minute presentation discussing the nurse’s role relating to the different types of mental health scales.
2 .
In groups, take turns acting as the nurse and the patient. Role-play a substance abuse assessment. Then as a group, discuss the steps of the nursing process and how each step should be applied to your scenario. If you do not have other students to work with, write the scenario out from both perspectives—the nurse and the patient.
3 .
Write a list of questions you would ask as a nurse caring for a child who is possibly experiencing neglect.
4 .
Review the competency checklists for this chapter and have a peer or instructor assess your performance of the tasks. You can find the checklists on the Student resources tab of your book page on openstax.org.
