Competency in Nursing Practice Discussion Paper

Reflection on Nursing Competencies

Throughout the course of NUR700, “Structure and Nursing Application of Knowledge,” my understanding of nursing competencies has significantly deepened, aligning with the AACN Essentials Domains 1, 9, and 10. Domain 1, which emphasizes the patient-centered care, has been a focal point of my learning journey (Fukada, 2018). As I reflect on my experiences this semester, I realize that my ability to provide holistic and individualized care has grown. This competency has not only sharpened my clinical skills but has also instilled in me the importance of patient advocacy and empowerment. Competency in Nursing Practice Discussion Paper

Moving on to Domain 9, which centers on professionalism and professional values, I recognize the transformation in my own professional identity. The course has enabled me to internalize the values of integrity, accountability, and ethical practice (Samuriwo, 2022). I have learned to navigate complex ethical dilemmas, fostering a sense of responsibility and commitment to the highest standards of nursing practice.

In Domain 10, focusing on the use of informatics and healthcare technologies, I have embraced the integration of technology into nursing care. NUR700 has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to leverage information systems for improved patient outcomes, efficient communication, and evidence-based decision-making (Schot et al., 2019). The seven competency statements, as outlined by AACN, have been woven into the fabric of my learning experience. From providing patient-centered care to upholding the highest professional standards and leveraging technology, each competency statement has become a tangible aspect of my nursing practice (Mrayyan et al., 2023). As I reflect on this semester, I am confident that these competencies will serve as the foundation for my continued growth and success in the field of nursing.
