Registered Nurse Self-Assessment/Peer Appraisal Tool and Professional Development Plan Booklet

1

SECTION ONE: PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT - Registered Nurse This section will assist registered nurses to use the ANMF National practice standards for nurses in general practice to plan, undertake, and evaluate, their own professional development. Undertaking CPD not only defines a professional but is also a mandatory requirement of the NMBA[12] for all nurses and midwives regulated under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law Act (2009). A nurse may be audited to show evidence of CPD.

When using this document it should be remembered that the ANMF National practice standards for nurses in general practice are to be used in conjunction with the NMBA Registered nurse standards for practice.

Section one - Part A: Self-assessment/peer appraisal tool

The self-assessment/peer appraisal tool in this section of the Toolkit (pages 5-48) can be used as either a self-assessment tool for the registered nurse to critically reflect on their professional practice OR it can be used as a self-assessment and peer appraisal tool.

It is important to note that a registered nurse is the only person who can complete a peer appraisal of the nursing practice of another registered nurse. Where a registered nurse is the sole nurse employed in a general practice, self-assessment can be undertaken and/or peer appraisal sought from another registered nurse employed outside the Practice. This may include a registered nurse colleague in another Practice or a registered nurse employed within the local primary health care organisation network. From a human resource perspective, a non-nurse employer/manager can only appraise a registered nurse or enrolled nurse in their employ on non-clinical responsibilities within their position description such as punctuality or communication.

The unshaded performance indicators under each standard within the self-assessment/peer appraisal tool are those of the registered nurse, whereas the shaded sections of the tool indicate the registered nurse (advanced practice) performance indicators. It is recognised that many registered nurses in General Practice are working at, or have the capacity to work at, a higher level than the minimum standard for registered nurses. To this end, the registered nurse (advanced practice) performance indicators build upon the knowledge and skills of the minimum standard for registered nurses to provide both a measure of higher level practice and also a framework to guide professional development.

It is anticipated that most experienced registered nurses will meet a combination of registered nurse and registered nurse (advanced practice) indicators across standards based on their individual nursing experience, continuing professional development and post-graduate education. Registered nurse (advanced practice) performance indicators that are not met at time of assessment, may assist the registered nurse in identifying possible areas for future continuing professional development and/or post-graduate education.
