Description¶

The review recommends using its six-domain competency framework to assess nurses' actual competency levels and to guide education and training programs, including continuing nursing education to deepen biologics knowledge. It also recommends assessment tools that consider individual patient educational requirements, such as the Educational Needs Assessment Tool, to enhance the efficacy of patient education.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• Competency framework should be updated regularly to adapt to the evolution of healthcare

Constraints¶

• The content of each competency must be further researched and refined in actual nursing practice

Target Learners¶

• Registered nurses
• Nurse educators

Target Learning Goals¶

• Safe medication management of biologics
• Patient education

Claims¶

• Sixteen studies support clinical specialized knowledge as a core nurse competency for biologics management [+W]

Related Strategies¶

• Integrate complementary methods — simulations, feedback, and targeted tools — into mental health nurse training and assessment
• Integrate interactive, competency-based diabetic foot care training into continuing professional development, supported by organizational resources
• Use simulation and virtual reality to train nurse managers' decision-making competency
• Use the competency framework as a fluid tool for appraisal, self-assessment and identifying learning needs
