Clinical nurse competency can be well supported through the institution of competency-based nurse orientation programs. The aims of this quality improvement project are twofold: to develop an orientation checklist that contains competency-based education techniques and assessment tools and to evaluate the usability of the competency-based orientation checklist by nursing staff.
