The Nurse’s overall performance rating is based on the Evaluator’s professional judgment and examination of evidence of the Nurse’s performance against the four Performance Standards and the Nurse’s attainment of goals set forth in the Nurse Plan, as follows: • Standard 1: Curriculum, Planning and Assessment • Standard 2: Nursing All Students • Standard 3: Family and Community Engagement • Standard 4: Professional Culture • Attainment of Professional Practice Goal(s) • Attainment of Student Learning Goal(s) dd. Rubric: In rating nurses on Performance Standards for the purpose of formative assessments, formative evaluations, or summative evaluations, a rubric must be used. The rubric is a scoring tool used to judge the nurse’s practice at the four levels of performance. The rubric consists of: ● Standards and Indicators of Effective Nursing Practice: Defined in 603.CMR 35.03. These standards and indicators are used in the rubrics incorporated into this evaluation system. ● Descriptors: define the individual elements of each of the indicators under the standards. ● Benchmarks: describe the acceptable demonstration of knowledge, skill or behavior necessary to achieve that performance rating. For each indicator, there are four benchmarks – one describing performance at each performance rating – Exemplary, Proficient, Needs Improvement and Unsatisfactory.
