Abstract
The Consortium for Family Caregiving Competencies in Nursing Education (the Consortium) formed in response to the need for nursing education to better prepare the future workforce to identify, value, integrate, and support family caregivers. The Consortium is comprised of expert educators and champions of family caregivers, representing diverse nursing education settings (rural, urban, online), types (Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Associate Degree in Nursing, Registered Nurse-to-Bachelor of Science in Nursing), and geographical locations across the United States. Rigorous processes were employed to identify and validate entry-level nursing education competencies for family caregiving. The 19 Family Caregiving Competencies for Level One Nursing Education cover four domains: The Nature of Family Caregiving, Family Caregiving Identification and Assessment, Providing Family-centered Care, and the Systems-based Context of Family Caregiving and have been crosswalked with the American Association of Colleges of Nursing Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education (2021).
