The PN cares for stable clients, administers routine medications, and reinforces teaching. The AP performs standard activities of daily living for stable clients. The Case Manager coordinates discharge logistics and community resources.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the task requiring initial care planning and primary education.
Developing an initial, comprehensive discharge teaching plan matches the Registered Nurse (RN).
Creating primary teaching plans requires comprehensive assessment and synthesis, which falls exclusively under the RN scope.
2
Evaluate the task involving routine medication administration and educational reinforcement.
Administering scheduled oral antihypertensive medications and reinforcing previously provided dietary education matches the Practical Nurse (PN).
The PN is licensed to administer routine oral medications to stable clients and reinforce education that has already been initiated by the RN.
3
Evaluate the task involving standard activities of daily living for a stable client.
Assisting a stable client who is two days postoperative with safely transferring from the bed to a chair matches Assistive Personnel (AP).
This is a routine, non-invasive task that does not require nursing judgment, making it safe to delegate to the AP.
4
Evaluate the task involving interagency care coordination and resource management.
Coordinating outpatient rehabilitation facility placement and arranging for the delivery of home medical equipment matches the Case Manager.
Case managers specialize in transitioning clients between levels of care and securing necessary resources for safe discharge.
