Specifically, the study addressed the following research questions: 1. Do community settings require different sets of competencies for physicians and registered nurses? 2. What variations exist in the competencies of physicians and registered nurses working in rural, urban and semi urban community settings?
Several sets of competencies in integrative medicine, developed for use in other settings, were reviewed as we began to describe the required competencies for the IFM program.
Assessment against sets of competencies rather than differentiated grading was introduced for core technical courses.
Resources and activities in a scenario are referenced by two sets of competencies, one for prerequisite competencies, and the other, for target competencies (i.e. learning objectives).
The addition and retesting of new items and factors of our MSF questionnaire in the future would allow us to develop a new MSF that would in fact assess those sets of competencies, although some of those competencies may be tested by using different assessment methods.
- Three sets of competencies in the form of people skills, process/workflow, and technology infrastructure needed to fully realize each value opportunity.
Basic or core sets of competencies are needed to achieve the results described in these studies (6).
The ICM recommends at least 18 months of midwifery education post-nursing or 3 years of direct entry education to achieve these sets of competencies.
For example, two sets of competencies created some discussion: the ability to use data presented in geo-referenced formats and ICT competencies such as an understanding of enterprise architecture and system interoperability.
The ontology was tested against a set of competency questions which were formulated as DL queries.
In order to truly ensure that junior trainees would not be shuttled into specialty curricula, a Resident Education Committee was formed, which designated 98 competency items and 85 diseases or symptoms as mandatory for all young residents to experience.To assess whether these goals of generalism were being achieved, we used the same set of competency and case criteria for our study.
