BACKGROUND
Entrustable professional activities (EPAs) are used in medical education in the assessment of clinical competence, but consideration of EPAs in nurse practitioner (NP) education is emerging.
PROBLEM
There are critical points in the NP educational trajectory when a student should demonstrate requisite knowledge and abilities. It can be challenging to assess and measure clinical proficiency in a way that can be clearly interpreted by students, faculty, and preceptors.
APPROACH
NP faculty reviewed a set of medical EPAs that were linked with physician competencies to determine if they related to national NP competency areas and learning activities in their curriculum.
CONCLUSIONS
Several NP competency areas (8 of 9) related to these EPAs, and the learning activities also related to multiple EPAs. Although further work would be needed to tailor EPAs to the NP role and link them specifically with NP competencies, EPAs may offer another valuable method for clinical evaluation of NP students.
背景
可委托的专业活动 (EPAs) 已用于医学教育中的临床能力评估，但在护士从业者 (NP) 教育中考虑 EPAs 也正在出现。
问题
在 NP 教育轨迹上，有一些关键点，学生应该在这些关键点展示必要的知识和能力。以一种可以被学生、教师和导师清楚解释的方式评估和衡量临床能力是具有挑战性的。
方法
NP 教师审查了一组与医师能力相关的医疗 EPAs，以确定它们是否与国家 NP 能力领域和课程中的学习活动相关。
结论
这些 EPAs 与几个 NP 能力领域（9 个中的 8 个）相关，学习活动也与多个 EPAs 相关。尽管需要进一步的工作来将 EPAs 调整到 NP 角色，并将其与 NP 能力具体联系起来，但 EPAs 可能为 NP 学生的临床评估提供另一种有价值的方法。
