Abstract

EVALUATION OF THE COMPETENCES OF OBSTETRICS-GYNECOLOGY SPECIALIZED NURSES USING THE ECOEnf EVALUATION SCALE Abstract: Introduction: In Spain, midwifes have to acquire during their studies the competences described in the SAS order SAS/1349/2009, however an evaluation process for theses competences is not defined. Objective: Adapt the ECOEnf Scale to the evaluation of midwifery student¿s competences. Methods: A qualitative investigation based on nominal groups and survey of expert¿s opinion was developed from the EscalaECOEnf, ECOEnfPed and ECOEnfMQ evaluation rubrics. This investigation was complemented with a psychometric validity and reliability study. Results: The ECOEnfObsGin evaluation Scale was obtained. This scale is composed of 8 evaluation rubrics: 4 transversal and 4 specific, which psychometric results were acceptable. Conclusions: The ECOEnfObsGin scale is a reliable instrument for the evaluation of midwifery student¿s competences, as well as it encourages continuous learning and feedback by tutors. For these reasons, a prototype trial of the scale is proposed to complete the psychometric study. Key words: Competency-Based Education, Educational Measurement, Nurse Midwives.
