Clinical Skills and Procedures Self-Assessment Before embarking on any professional or academic activity, it is important to understand the background, knowledge, and experience you bring to it. You might ask yourself “What do I already know? What do I need to know? And what do I want to know?” This critical self-reflection is especially important for developing clinical skills, such as those for advanced practice nursing. The FNP Clinical Skills List and Resource Review document, provided in the Learning Resources, can be used to celebrate your progress throughout your practicum and identify skills gaps. The list covers all of the necessary skills you should demonstrate during your practicum courses. The FNP Procedure List and Resource Review contains a list of procedures you may have an opportunity to perform at your practicum site. As you perform the procedures (as applicable), record them at the bottom of the list and have your preceptor sign off on it. For this Assignment, you assess where you are now in your clinical skill development and make plans for your practicum. Specifically, you will identify strengths and opportunities for improvement regarding the required practicum skills and procedures.
