Nursing - Delegation of Work

Nursing - This work has delegated to the National Council of National Councils to define approval as "transfer to competent individuals with the ability to carry out selected care tasks under certain circumstances" (National Nursing Care Council, resource section, 4). At the time of delegation, a registered nurse (RN) still assigns care tasks to unauthorized support personnel (UAP), taking charge of the patient's responsibilities and assigned tasks. Delegation is a management strategy that provides effective care for patients.

The delegation said that to do something to other people is not a delegation. So, what is the concept you heard in nursing? Is there legal influence? Who is responsible for the work that needs to be done? As a nurse, do you think you will do it yourself? What is your responsibility to those who delegated the assignment? Is it your responsibility to ensure that personnel assigned to each task have appropriate qualifications, authorities and responsibilities? Is not that simple? Go ahead in this section and keep these issues in mind. Reflection and concept map: delegation

Authorization is a term that means assigning a specific authority or responsibility to a person to perform a task, but the licensor is still responsible for approving the task (Wikipedia, 2010). In the nursing world, empowerment is a skill that needs to know what registered nurses (RNs) can delegate and who can delegate. It has been approved by the American Nurses University (ANA) and the National Council of Nurses (NCSBN). Licensing is a complex skill and it is best to learn in cooperation with other RNs. In order for RN to approve, the RN must know their "state nurse practice, institutional policies and procedures, and the organization's support staff duties" (Potter and Perry, 2005, p . 379).

The perioperative RN must be aware of the legal definitions of certain states and guidelines for assignment and approval. The perioperative RN obeys the facility's policy or directional approval function, but they do not release the nurse from the responsibility of judging the person's abilities and the appropriateness of approved activities. The perioperative RN uses professional clinical judgment to decide who will delegate a specific patient care activity and under which circumstances to authorize patient care work. Before approval it is also necessary to consider the condition of the patient, the complexity of the procedure, the predictability of the outcome, the preparation and ability of the referring person, and the amount of supervision required 5.
