ASSESSMENT AND DIAGNOSIS
Directions: Prior to completing this template, carefully review Week 2: Direct Care Part 1 directions and all rubric requirements.
Assessment of Certification, Patient Outcomes, and Leadership
1. State the clinical certification and target population that were approved by your instructor in the Week 2: Direct Care Part 1 Assessment and Diagnosis Check-In.
a. Clinical certification
My clinical qualification is Oncology Certified Nursing (OCN), which was accepted by my professor.
b. Target population including setting
Oncology treatment facilities are the location, and the intended audience is registered nurses caring for patients with cancer.
2. Discuss why this clinical certification was selected in relationship to the selected setting.
In cancer treatment facilities, patients often need specialist care. By specializing in the care of cancer patients, nurses who have earned the Oncology Certified Nursing credential have the knowledge and skills necessary to offer patients with the most effective treatments and support. Caring for terminally ill patients in a stable condition requires oncology nurses to experience a wide range of feelings every day. Care plans for patients with cancer benefit greatly from the input of other medical specialties. Patient care is improved at oncology treatment facilities where nurses have undergone specialized training and earned the Oncology Certified Nursing credential.
3. Describe the criteria for selected clinical certification
a. The process to obtain clinical certification.
Achieving OCN accreditation requires passing five tests. The first thing to do is use the Oncology Nursing Certification Corporation’s online calculator to see whether you have enough experience to take the exam. After determining whether or not the person has the necessary expertise, the Certification Registration Manual is printed. In this section, he or she may verify that he or she will be tested on the appropriate topics by reviewing the Test Content Outline. Taking a practice exam to become used to the format of the actual exam is the third stage. After that, you’ll need to study, collect your Continuing Education (CE) information, and apply for your OCN certification. In order to take the exam, those who qualify are given a document called an Authorization to Test (ATT), which includes a deadline of 90 days.
b. Cost of application and testing
To take the OCN certification test as a non-member would set you back $416. As an APHON/ONS member, you may take the OCN test for just $296. Those 65 and above pay $225 if they are members, or $315 if they are not.
c. Requirements before certification
· Typically, a BSN or an ASN is required for entry-level nursing positions.
· The equivalent of at least two thousand hours of study in the field of oncology Expertise as an oncology nurse with adult patients is required.
· Be a registered nurse with at least two years’ experience within the last four years.
· Attendance at ten oncology-related programs during the last three years is required.
d. Examination description
There are 165 multiple-choice questions on the exam, and they are all based on the six categories included in the OCN Test Content Outline. Every section of the exam will get a certain proportion of your total three hours.
e. Renewal time and process
8-12 weeks is the time required for the renewal process. Points are submitted in LearningBuilder as part of a two-stage certification application procedure. Next, pick “My Account” and then “Renew my certification” to submit your renewal application. A certification’s validity lasts for four years from the day it was earned.
f. Required items for renewal
· Modern OCN accreditation.
· Possession of a valid and unrestricted RN license valid for practice in the 50 United States or Canada.
· An R.N. degree and at least a year of relevant work experience within the last three years are prerequisites.
· Over the last 2.5 years, you’ve worked as an oncology nurse for at least 1000 hours with adults.
4. Provide APA reference for one peer-reviewed scholarly professional nursing journal article connecting patient outcomes, clinical certification, and leadership skills. See reference criteria under directions and include Permalink.
