Infection Control Decision-Making
	Distinguished 4 pts	Proficient 3 pts	Basic 2 pts	Below Expectations 1 pts	Non-Performance 0 pts
Identification of Infection Control Risk	Distinguished Accurately identifies all relevant infection control risks present in the scenario and clearly demonstrates understanding of why each risk poses a threat to patient safety.	Proficient Correctly identifies the primary infection control risk in the scenario and shows general understanding of its impact on patient safety.	Basic Identifies an infection control risk, but the identification is incomplete, vague, or misses key elements of the scenario.	Below Expectations Incorrectly identifies the infection control risk or focuses on an issue unrelated to infection control.	Non-Performance Does not identify an infection control risk or fails to respond.
Selection of Appropriate Response	Distinguished Selects the most appropriate response based on established infection control guidelines and clearly aligns the response with best practice standards.	Proficient Selects an appropriate response that generally aligns with infection control guidelines, though justification may lack depth or specificity.	Basic Selects a partially appropriate response, but the choice reflects gaps in understanding of correct infection control procedures.	Below Expectations Selects an inappropriate or unsafe response that does not align with infection control guidelines.	Non-Performance Does not select a response or provides an irrelevant answer.
Explanation and Justification of Decision	Distinguished Provides a clear, well-reasoned explanation that fully justifies the selected response using infection control principles and scenario evidence.	Proficient Provides a logical explanation for the selected response, though reasoning may be somewhat general or lack full connection to guidelines.	Basic Provides a limited or unclear explanation that minimally supports the selected response.	Below Expectations Provides a weak, incorrect, or poorly reasoned explanation that does not justify the selected response.	Non-Performance Provides no explanation or justification.
Application of Infection Control Guidelines	Distinguished Consistently applies infection control guidelines accurately and demonstrates strong understanding of how guidelines guide decision-making in practice.	Proficient Applies infection control guidelines correctly, though application may lack detail or full integration with the scenario.	Basic Demonstrates partial application of infection control guidelines, with noticeable errors or omissions.	Below Expectations Demonstrates little to no understanding of applicable infection control guidelines.	Non-Performance Does not reference or apply infection control guidelines.
Clarity and Professional Communication	Distinguished Response is clear, organized, and professionally communicated, with no errors that interfere with meaning.	Proficient Response is generally clear and professional, with minor errors that do not significantly affect understanding.	Basic Response lacks clarity or organization, and errors may distract from meaning.	Below Expectations Response is poorly organized or difficult to understand due to significant errors.	Non-Performance Response is missing, incoherent, or unreadable.
