Competency Responses
Presented by: Lori Sprenger, PhD, RN
OBJECTIVES
The participant will:
1. Recognize the importance of integrating
QSEN competencies into case study (CS)
scenarios that may be used in a variety of nursing
education settings.
2. Understand the process for implementing CS
with QSEN integration into a variety of nursing
education settings.
3. Critique the effectiveness of implementing CS
with QSEN integration into a variety of nursing
education settings.
Objective 1: Recognize the importance of integrating

 Increase overall prevalence of quality patient-care
outcomes
Goals of QSEN intervention strategy is to enable nursing
students to…
1. Understand the importance of QSEN
2. Feel empowered and confident to apply QSEN
competencies to hypothetical and real patient-care
situations in both the acute care and community care
settings.
Objective 2: Implement CS w/QSEN
integration into a variety of educational settings
 Classroom setting

 Small group discussion
 Oral presentation
 Students create their own CS and QSEN integration
questions
 Online course room setting
 Individual or group responses
 Initial response to graded discussion area
 Peer responses to CS including QSEN responses
Objective 2 (continued)
 Clinical post-conference
 Individual patients (acute care or community
setting)
 F2F sharing of QSEN integration
 Online post conference sharing
 Groups of patients in the community setting
 F2F sharing of QSEN integration
 Online post conference sharing
Objective 3: Critique the effectiveness of
the intervention
 Qualitative response from students
 Verbal or written responses to open-ended questions
 Students’ overall general opinions about the CS w/ QSEN
integration
 What students liked best
 What students did not like
 Ask about students’ levels of confidence with applying
QSEN integration into CS scenarios
 What could be done to improve the CS w/ QSEN

Objective 3 (continued)
 Quantitative
 Closed ended question with yes or no response



Would you like to try the CS w/ QSEN integration activity on your own another time?
Would you like to try the CS w/ QSEN integration activity as a small group activity another
time?
Would you like to try the CS w/ QSEN integration activity as a classroom discussion another
time?
 Develop a Likert scale questionnaire regarding level of self-confidence (Shell, Murphy,
& Bruning, 1989)

0 = poor level of confidence, 5 = average level of self-confidence, 10 highly self-confident
 My level of confidence with completing the CS w/QSEN integration alone is:
 My level of confidence with completing the CS w/QSEN integration in a small group is:
 My level of confidence with completing the CS w/ QSEN integration in an open discussion
classroom setting is:
 Develop a Likert scale questionnaire about general overall opinion
 0---did not like, 5---no opinion, 10---liked it a lot
 My overall general opinion of the CS w/ QSEN integration is:
