Resumen: Background/Objectives:
Nursing competence encompasses the integration of knowledge, skills, and attitudes essential for comprehensive and safe patient care. This study aimed to compare self-assessment and tutor evaluation of nurses’ competencies in a hospital emergency department before and after a training intervention. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving 63 newly hired nurses who participated in a mentorship program. The intervention included theoretical and practical sessions on critical care skills. Data were collected through self-assessment questionnaires and objective evaluations by tutors using validated rubrics. Results: The results indicated significant differences between self-assessment and tutor evaluations in pre- and post-intervention phases, particularly in competencies related to orotracheal intubation and fibrinolytic therapy for ischemic stroke. Post-intervention, discrepancies between self-assessment and tutor evaluations decreased, suggesting improved self-awareness and competence among participants. Conclusions: This study highlights the importance of combining self-assessment and external evaluation to ensure accurate competency assessment and effective educational interventions, ultimately enhancing the quality of patient care.
