Nurses must act to prevent unsafe and unethical care practices Delegation is a complex nursing skill that requires clinical judgement and accountability of patient care. Effective delegation requires an understanding of the concepts of responsibility, accountability, and authority.
Watch the Professional Standards Scenario in this module before continuing. [ *** the scenario can not be linked, however is is a short video that depicts the Regaistered Nurse delegating the removal of an IV at patient discharge to a Nursing Student.]
Watch the Activity 3 Scenario before continuing.
Now, analyze the scenario related to delegation according to your own state’s Nurse Practice Act [*** I live in New Jersey]. Then, compare it to one other state’s Nurse Practice Act. Use citations from the professional nursing literature and your state’s Nurse Practice Act, or scope of practice documents as resources. Include your state’s definition of delegation in your introductory paragraph and the comparison state’s definition in the body of the paper.
According to your state’s [NJ] definition of delegation, was the nurse able to delegate this task to the nursing assistant? Why or why not? Compare and contrast this scenario with anther delegation scenario from your nursing practice.
