RN Competency Form: Operating Room
REQUIREMENTS: All nurses will complete these competencies upon hire. Some competencies may be reviewed annually. This form
follows the Competency Outcomes and Performance Assessment (COPA) model.
PRECEPTEE/LEARNER INSTRUCTIONS:
Complete self-assessment: Rate your skill in each area to identify the areas where you need additional experience, access to
teaching resources, and/or lab practice. Discuss your results with your preceptor to help establish a plan and goals for your learning
experience and to aid in choosing patient assignments. Scoring per instructions at the top of page 1.
PRECEPTOR INSTRUCTIONS:
A. Review self-assessment with preceptee/learner to establish plan.
B. Required Competencies: The specialty area competency forms are required for independent practice on this unit. This column
represents the Alaska Statewide required competencies per ACE-HC and should not be altered. The preceptor will sign each one off
when he/she, as preceptor and colleague, feels safe in allowing the preceptee/learner to deliver this aspect of care without
direct supervision.
C. Verification Method & Agency Specific. Document comments/check marks for the competency and any agency specific
requirements. Verification methods include:
1. Demonstration – Preceptor watches learner perform task/procedure in safe, capable manner in a simulated lab or computer
setting or as part of direct care performance. The expectation for new graduates is that they demonstrate as many of the
competencies as possible.
2. Test – Learner passes a test provided by the facility to measure competence for this skill. (Minimum passing grade indicated.
Initial only after test passed.)
3. Module –Learner has completed a training tool (computerized or written module, class, video, etc.) provided by the facility to
measure competence for this skill.
4. Verbalization - Learner explains to the preceptor the process and/or planning that evidences safe, reliable knowledge base.
This may include case scenarios, discussion, and/or description of plan.
NOTE: some competencies may have the verification method specified per facility guidelines (e.g. “test only”)
Record N/A and initials only for items that never apply to this learner’s role or performance.
D. Sign-off: Sign and date when all elements of the competency are met. If unable to sign off an area due to patient population issues
or learner needs more time, document a plan in the comments section at the end of the form. Discuss alternative ways of meeting
the requirement(s) as well as any additional time needed with the nurse manager and/or nurse educator. All preceptors assisting in
orientation of a new staff member/intern must sign and initial in the signature chart at the end of this document.
E. References: Competencies should be met in accordance with these. Add your facility approved references here.
F. Learning Guide: These are memory ticklers. The amount of time spent on each of them depends on the learner’s experience. New
graduates will likely need time on almost all of the areas listed.
REFERENCES COLUMN: List foundational documents to support the learning experience and to use as the official measure by which
the competencies are assessed. The ACE-HC group recognizes the following as sources for evidence based practice that can be
included in the reference list along with local policies, procedures and forms: Perry & Potter, Elsevier/Mosby, Lippincott, Kozier & Erb,
ANA, nationally recognized hospital related regulatory organizations (CLIA, CDC, CMS, JC, etc.), and specialty nursing organizations’
scope, standards and core curricula. This column’s content may be changed to be facility specific.
NOTE: ACE-HC competency forms are intended to be used between facilities within Alaska.
Form based on Dr. Carrie Lenburg’s “Competency Outcomes & Performance Assessment” model.
