Sample Nursing Assignment on NURSING REGULATION AND PROFESSIONALISM

Perform an internet search on professional competency programs to get an idea of types of competency activities professionals in your province engages in to maintain competency.

Drawing on the readings from this module, make a list of the activities required by the regulatory body to ensure the competency of its members.

As an LPN, you have a legal and ethical responsibility to engage in ongoing competency activities. What activities do you engage in to maintain your competence to practice? What activities do you engage in to develop your ethical fitness to practice? What evidence can you provide to demonstrate that you have, indeed, completed these activities successfully?

Conduct an environmental scan of your employment agency and regulatory body. What opportunities are available to you locally that will help you develop and maintain your ethical fitness to practice?

Now rewrite your full definition of professionalism for a LPN, with rationales for what you propose.
