Discussion Reflection
Response – Core Competencies
Post your complete response to the discussion questions in
the Discussion Area by the due date assigned.
Competencies are there to help APN’s to practice at an
evolved level. This week we will reflect on the competencies required to be an
APN.
Transitioning from the professional nursing role (RN) to
advanced practice nursing role (APN) requires learners to intentionally reflect
on what they know and what they need to know. Becoming familiar with the
expected core competencies will help you understand the practice behavior
expectations. In this week’s reflection discussion, choose at least 1 core competencies
from the APN role you have choose to become.
Reflect on your past experiences in
nursing and consider how the role change to APN may challenge your
knowledge and skills?
Discuss on least 2
expectations/outcomes of your identified competency that you think you
have met from your past nursing experiences?
Discuss at least 2
expectations/outcomes of the competency that you have yet to meet from
your past nursing experiences?
Reflect on actions you plan to take
to further develop your thinking and skills on your identified competency
as it applies to the advanced practice nurse role.
Please note:
This is a reflection and therefore
no references are needed nor expected.

Guidelines: In your discussion
response, provide a substantive response that illustrates a well-reasoned and
thoughtful response. Reflective posts provide you an opportunity to think back
on the concepts and materials you reviewed for the week. A reflection is a
method for personal growth. A reflection post can help answer questions, such
as, “How has my thinking changed this past week?”, “How can I
use the concepts or relationships from the course readings and course content
in my practice?” Reflection enhances personal and professional growth by
making connections to previous course content and/or presenting novel ideas and
insights.
