Advancing home health nursing competencies in Canada to reflect a dynamic care environment and complex population health needs: a modified eDelphi study

The home health nursing competency set generated through this study incorporates core concepts in home health nursing practice, such as evidence-informed practice and interdisciplinary collaboration, along with several new concepts, such as trauma-informed care, data-driven decision-making, and provision of culturally safe care. This updated competency set can be used to inform prelicensure education and professional development opportunities to enhance home health workforce capacity. Future work exploring strategies to support competency uptake in education and home and community care organizations is needed.
