nursing portfolio
Over the duration of the Bachelor of Nursing program students will develop a portfolio that can be used when they graduate
to demonstrate that they have achieved the competencies required for nursing practice. The portfolio will be based around
the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Council (ANMC) (2006) National Competency Standards for the Registered Nurse 4th
edition, which can be accessed via the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia website at:
http://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/
Assessment 2 will enable Bachelor of Nursing students to develop their understanding of the ANMC competency domain
Critical Thinking and Analysis. An understanding of this domain is essential for skill development in all 10 competency
areas. To be competent in this domain, students must develop skills in reflection and utilising quality evidence.
Information on reflection and reflective writing can be accessed via the
University of New South Wales link at: http://www.lc.unsw.edu.au/onlib/reflect.html
In aIDition the following link provides examples of how students can approach Part B of the assessment item. In this
example, note how the reflection in the examples is supported by referring to what the student has read in the literature.
