Standard for Competence

According to Canadian Medical Association accreditation standards, students must perform each hospital (clinical) or ambulance (field) competency with a patient at least twice successfully.

The Paramedic Association of Canada Board of Directors has approved the following definition of competence, to which Augustana Faculty, University of Alberta's EMS programs adheres. Preceptors are to measure students against this standard of competence.

Competence involves the demonstration of skills, knowledge and abilities in accordance with the following principles:

  • consistency (the ability to repeat practice techniques and outcomes)
  • independence (the ability to practice without assistance from others)
  • timelines (the ability to practice in a time frame that enhances patient safety)
  • accuracy (the ability to practice utilizing correct techniques and to achieve the intended outcomes)
    • appropriateness (the ability to practice in accordance with clinical standards and protocols outlined within the practice jurisdiction)
