A practical nurse (PN) is preparing to delegate routine morning care tasks to an assistive personnel (AP) on a medical-surgical unit. Place the following actions in the correct chronological sequence to ensure a safe and effective delegation process.
- 1Evaluate the stability of the clients to determine if the tasks are appropriate for delegation.
- 2Verify the competency and training of the assistive personnel to perform the specific tasks.
- 3Communicate clear instructions, including expectations for when to report abnormal findings.
- 4Monitor the assistive personnel's progress and provide guidance as needed during the shift.
- 5Review the documented outcomes and assess the clients' responses to the delegated care.
Cevap
The correct sequence follows the Five Rights of Delegation: First, evaluate client stability (Right Circumstance). Second, verify AP competency (Right Person). Third, communicate clear instructions (Right Direction). Fourth, monitor progress (Right Supervision). Finally, review documented outcomes (Right Evaluation).
Safe delegation follows a systematic process based on the Five Rights of Delegation. The nurse must first assess the client's stability (Right Circumstance) before determining if the AP is competent for the task (Right Person). Clear instructions must then be provided (Right Direction/Communication) prior to task execution. Finally, the nurse provides ongoing monitoring (Right Supervision) followed by reviewing the outcomes (Right Evaluation).
