摘要

临床护理能力框架在指导评估预期毕业生能力的成就方面至关重要。然而，加纳护理和助产委员会（NMC）似乎对临床护理能力没有明确的定义，也没有临床护理能力框架来指导执照考试。在加纳，不清楚执照考试评估的是什么能力。这篇文章是一篇评论，旨在引起人们对加纳和其他非洲国家护理教育和实践监管机构的关注，为各种护士干部设计研究知情的临床护理能力框架，并将其用于临床护理能力的评估。

A commentary on the need for a clinical nursing competency framework in Ghana

Clinical nursing competency framework is crucial in guiding the assessment of the achievement of expected graduate competencies. However, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) of Ghana does not appear to have a clear and explicit definition for clinical nursing competence nor a clinical nursing competency framework to guide the licensing examination. In Ghana, it is unclear what competencies are assessed by the licensing examination. This article is a commentary that aims to call attention to the need for the regulators of nursing education and practice in Ghana and other African countries to design research-informed clinical nursing competency frameworks for the various cadres of nurses, and use same for the assessment of clinical nursing competence.

期刊介绍： International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
