NCNZ Nursing Competence New Zealand VIP Practice Exam
NCNZ β This exam mirrors the Nursing Council of New Zealand (NCNZ) Competence Assessment Programme (CAP), which evaluates registered nurses against the four domains of the NCNZ Competencies for Registered Nurses (2007, updated 2016): Professional Responsibility, Management of Nursing Care, Interpersonal Relationships, and Inter-professional Health Care and Quality Improvement. Registration in New Zealand also requires compliance with the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act 2003. Since 2016, internationally qualified nurses seeking initial registration may also be required to sit the NCLEX-RN; this practice set focuses on the NCNZ competency framework, NZ legislation, and culturally safe practice in the New Zealand context.

The nurse is aware that under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act 2003 (HPCA Act), she has professional obligations. Which action is MOST consistent with her legal and ethical duties?
