Consensus is evident among influential professional organizations (American Nurses Association, American College of Nurses, Institute of Medicine, National Council of State Boards of Nursing, World Health Organization, National Institute of Health, Quality Safety and Education for Nursing and the American Association of Critical Care Nurses) as to essential core competencies for healthcare providers. Although there is agreement among them, assessment and measurement of competence for RN’s in transition is overly complex. Eleven benchmarks were developed as foundational criteria to determine readiness to practice through research of national healthcare organizations position statements on competency and subsequently cross walked with identified core competencies. This article introduces the concept of evidence-based benchmarks as a mechanism to determine readiness to practice safely, competently and independently among novice and experienced nurses who are in transition.
