Novice to expert: the evolution of an advanced practice evaluation tool.
Professional performance evaluation provides an opportunity to measure the practice of health providers within healthcare settings. Standardized evaluation can be challenging as a result of diverse practice arenas, multiple evaluators and standards of care. Using Benner's novice to expert model, a Performance Excellence and Accountability tool (PEAC Tool(©)) has been designed to measure advanced practice providers performance based upon facets of professional practice. This article discusses development, practical implementation and evaluation of a PEAC Tool(©).
