Abstrakt		Introduction: The complexity of patients' needs in today's health care calls for a revision and extension of nursing professions to ensure optimal health care outcomes. The aim of the research was to assess the understanding of the four categories of the nursing care continuum and, accordingly, four categories of nursing care providers. Methods: A descriptive, quantitative research design was employed. Participants included 365 nursing educators and nurses working in the clinical setting. The structured questionnaire used was based on the four categories of the nursing care continuum. Results: Secondary school teachers expressed significantly lower agreement with the terming of health care assistant (p < 0.001), and with the general (p < 0.001) and specific (p < 0.001) competencies of this profession, contrary to management workers (p < 0.001) and those trained in research (p = 0.030) and evidence-based care (p = 0.004) who expressed higher agreement with the competencies of health care assistants. Discussion and conclusion: The research draws attention to the issue of understanding and applying the competencies of health care assistants. In order to implement the workforce matrix of competences, the European Directive on regulated professions should be supplemented with minimum requirements for specialist knowledge and advanced practice in nursing. In addition, the competencies and minimum educational requirements for health care assistants should be defined.Uvod: Trenutna kompleksnost pacientovih potreb zahteva revizijo in razširitev kompetenc poklicev v zdravstveni negi, ki bo zagotovila optimalne zdravstvene izide. Cilj raziskave je bil preveriti razumevanje štirih ravni kompetenc pri zagotavljanju zdravstvene nege in s tem povezanih štirih kategorij izvajalcev zdravstvene nege. Metode: Uporabljena je bila opisna kvantitativna metoda. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 365 oseb s področja izobraževanja in kliničnega dela v zdravstveni negi. Uporabljen je bil strukturirani vprašalnik, ki je temeljil na štirih ravneh kompetenc in kategorij izvajalcev v zdravstveni negi. Rezultati: Učitelji srednjih šol se manj strinjajo s poimenovanjem poklica zdravstveni asistent (p < 0,001) ter splošnimi (p < 0,001) in specifičnimi kompetencami za ta poklic (p < 0,001). Nasprotno menedžment (p < 0,001) in tisti, ki so se izobraževali iz raziskovanja (p = 0,030) in na dokazih podprtega dela (p = 0,004), kompetence za zdravstvenega asistenta značilno bolj podpirajo. Diskusija in zaključek: Raziskava kaže na problem razumevanja in ustreznega umeščanja kompetenc zdravstvenega asistenta. Za implementacijo matrike kompetenc je potrebno Evropsko direktivo za regulirane poklice dopolniti z minimalnimi zahtevami za specialistična znanja in napredne oblike dela v zdravstveni negi ter zapisati kompetence in minimalne pogoje šolanja za zdravstvenega asistenta.
