Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify professional competencies of visiting nurses in public health centers.
Methods: A methodological study for the development of visiting nurses’ professional competency was conducted through the review of literature and construction of a conceptual framework for the development of professional competence. After reviewing the content validity of each question and confirming the items of the preliminary tool, the construct validity of the tool was verified through exploratory factor analysis and internal reliability was confirmed.
Results: After constructing 5 factors relating to the visiting nurse’s professional competence, 25 items were developed, based on verification of content validity by experts. The results of the exploratory factor analysis showed that the professional competence of the visiting nurse was influenced by factors such as “health assessment and screening,” “health teaching and counseling,” “interprofessional communication”, “program planning and implementation”, and “Professional development”. These five factors accounted for 76.38% of the professional competencies of the visiting nurse.
Conclusion: The professional competence of the visiting nurse is consistent with the aim of the visiting nursing project. Also our results will contribute to baseline data used to evaluate the quality of work of the visiting nurse.
