Competency on Braden scale

Hi all,

Do any of you have a competency form to test nurses on proper evaluation when doing the Braden scale?

I would be so grateful for a copy. :redpinkhe

Thanks,

Our braden scales are in our clinicomp computer charting of the nursing assessment. It gives an explanation of how to score each area, hence we do not need to have it memorized.

Hi lpnFlorida!

Thanks for the info. My DON was looking for a hardcopy of a Braden competency. We don't have a software program where it is embedded.

If you have a hardcopy that you can forward, that would be super!

Thanks again!!

Hi Suni,

I see that you posted a request for the Braden Scale Competency online last year. I am in need of that same document/form in hardcopy or electronic version.

Did you ever receive a Braden Competency from your post?? If you did, do you still have it, and would you be willing to share?

Thanks,

Boogie

Dear sirI,

Thank you for your help. I have been through the Braden Scale website, and I can construct a competency form from some of the information there. I was just wondering if there was a formal Braden competency that someone knew of.

Thanks again for the assist!

the above site talks of an online company site which via computer tests the braden scale.

Do you mean a test to test how they fill out a form? Do people do that?

The Braden Assessment form that we have is just about 6 or so questions. You look at the expainations and fill in the answer.
