I was pondering an apprenticeship type approach to becoming an RN in a number of different RN areas. A friend of mine is an RN, nurse practitioner, and certified mid-wife. I wanted to ask you all where I can find competency/skills checklists that I can present to her and have her teach them to me firsthand. I know that I can not become an RN like this without schooling. I just want to go ahead and have the workplace knowledge that a RN, nurse practitioner, mid-wife has since I have a willing teacher to teach me everything she knows if I stick with it. What I have found so far are checklists for a number of areas within being an RN. Is this link that I have posted below the best list of competency/skills checklists?? Competency Checklists for the Department of Nursing Are there others that you can think of that are better or cover areas that the link I posted above misses? Now, that is for 1. RN. Can the professional 2. nurse practitioners and 3. mid-wives please direct me or show me where I can find the equivalent competency/skills checklists for those two areas also? Thank you!
