Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Nursing Education
  • Workforce Development

Background:

  • Enhancing workforce capacity and population health requires standardized benchmarks in community/public health nursing (C/PHN) and public health sectors.
  • Standardization of skills, knowledge, and actions is essential for ensuring safe, quality care across the public health workforce.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and establish consistent benchmarks for community/public health nursing (C/PHN) practices.
  • To develop a unified competency framework for the public health sector.

Main Methods:

  • A literature review identified five key public health competency documents.
  • These documents were analyzed thematically to highlight key components, focus, themes, and unique features.

Main Results:

  • Analysis revealed similarities and gaps, indicating a misalignment in existing competencies.
  • The Public Health Outcomes through Equity, Navigation, Inclusion, and Cross-Sector Collaboration (PHOENIX) model was developed.
  • PHOENIX provides a universal competency framework integrating interdisciplinary and nursing-specific competencies.

Conclusions:

  • Cross-disciplinary strategic thinking necessitates leveling competencies for interdisciplinary unity in the public health workforce.
  • The PHOENIX framework acknowledges the unique role of nursing in direct care and public health practice.
  • PHOENIX offers a nursing-focused yet broadly applicable framework for diverse public health disciplines.
