and can readily transfer knowledge gained from multiple previous experiences to a
situation. A competent nurse understands the
organization and specific care required by the type of patients (e.g., surgical,
oncology, or orthopedic patients). This nurse is a competent practitioner who is

some level of experience with thesituation is an advanced beginner. This
