QUESTION 3)

 

We don’t have the time to be assessing the skills of individuals when assigned to a task because this is time consuming, and at the same time we shouldn’t be expected to look over anyone’s shoulder to see if the task is being done safely

 

Hi Class,

 

I agree that time is always a factor, but according to the five rights of delegation, nurses do have to know the skills/knowledge of the staff they are delegated to. They are also required to make sure the task was done correctly. What would happen if the nurse fails to follow these five rights?

QUESTION 4)

If the person is not a regular that works on your floor they might need just some extra info to perform the task. I’d rather do it myself though and make sure it is done if I know the CNA working does not understand the task and I don’t have time to explain it
