combined with literature analysis

preliminary formulation of evaluation indicators. Using Delphi method

21 experts from 5 hospitals of traditional Chinese medicine and medical universities were selected

screening index and determined the weights system. Using SPSS 16 to input and process data. Results The final version of the competency model included Grade 1 with 4 items and Grade 2 with 20 items. The weight coefficients of the first level indexes are 0.2609

0.2598

0.2570 and 0.2224. The positive coefficients of two rounds of experts are 100% and 95.24% respectively. Authority coefficient 0.88. The coefficients of variation were 0.0923 to 0.1628 and 0.0430 to 0.1827. Conclusions This competency model could provide scientific evaluation of the nurses’ competency creditably.
