Abstract

The article analyzes the current state of training of future nurses in the context of developing creative potential in the process of professional training in the USA, Canada, Great Britain and a number of European countries, which is highlighted in pedagogical and medical scientific literature. The features of educational processes in institutions of pre-higher and higher education in foreign countries are outlined. A number of factors influencing the training of nurses are identified, in particular, teaching methods that activate the mental abilities of students and motivate them to learning and creative activity, stimulate independent work.
Four main competencies are identified: professional, social, methodological and personality. Professional competence includes the following components: diagnostic and manipulative, integration (combination of theory and practice), clinical and critical, psychological, pedagogical, managerial, economic, legal.
The components of social competence are: ethical-deontological, socially perceptive, communicative, cooperative, problem-oriented, transcultural. The methodological competence includes consultative, educational-informative, organizational, statistical, evaluative, research, planning components. The personality competence is determined by ethical, leadership, value, empathy, responsibility, independence, flexibility, motivational components. It is noted that in the USA, nurses are considered to be the colleagues of doctors, not their subordinates. Nurses can question the actions of doctors if they pose a danger to patients. In the USA, a nurse is an intermediary between the patient and the doctor. American nursing education has common levels with Ukrainian once, but also has fundamental differences. It is concluded that the need for modern medicine in nurses with high-quality professional training that would meet world standards is growing, being the specialists capable of creative expression in professional self-realization in the medical field.
