Outline the principles that guide nurses during delegation
Outline the principles that guide nurses during delegation; Registered nurses have a right and responsible to delegate. As they delegate, nurses should be guided by a number of principles. First, the nurses must assess and plan the delegation.
This should be based on specific needs of patient(s) in question and available resources. Secondly, the nurse should communicate directions to those being delegated to.
Some of the issues that need to be communicated include unique patient needs and characteristics, expectations of the nurse, and all the details that need to be reported.
The nurse may also take into consideration that delegation is not absolute. That being the case, the nurse should survey and supervise delegation, including review of progress reports and change in patients’ situation.
Evaluation and feedback are other factors that the nurse should consider. The nurse should consider reliability of the delegation including any need to change or alter plan of care (ANA & NCSBN, 2005).
