1. Right task

2. To maximize client care outcomes
3. To improve the working ability of the nurse
4. To maintain open lines of communication between delegator and the delegatee -
CORRECT ANSWER 2. To maximize client care outcomes

The ultimate goal of the delegation is to maximize client care outcomes. Delegation
helps to deliver client care as a team and improves the working ability of the nurse but
these are not the ultimate goals of delegation. Maintaining open lines of communication
between delegator and the delegatee creates a productive work environment in
delivering client care.

1. Monitoring client care
2. Seeking the outcome report

4. Providing honest feedback to the delegatee
5. Assisting registered nurses with delegation decisions - CORRECT ANSWER 1.
Monitoring client care
2. Seeking the outcome report

Monitoring client care and seeking the outcome report represents accountability of the
task in case of conflicts. Assessing the ability of the delegatee and educating about the
task indicates responsibility. Providing open and honest feedback to the delegatee
improves work performance and client care outcomes. The nurse can assist other
registered nurses with delegation decisions regarding safety issues, urgency to
intervene, or potential negative client outcomes.

Which characteristic should the nurse use during the nursing process as a guide for
delegation?
1. Leadership
2. Critical analysis
3. Psychomotor task
4. Time management - CORRECT ANSWER 2. Critical analysis

Critical analysis by the registered nurse serves as a guide for delegation in the nursing
process. It is applied in assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation for safe
and effective client care. Leadership is a role in which a nurse has charge of the
personnel as they perform their tasks. Psychomotor tasks are the common
characteristics and essential components that a nurse should possess to provide client
care. Time management is essential in performing tasks within specified deadlines
during delegacy.

A nurse is assisting another registered nurse in the intensive care unit who is caring for
a client with uncontrolled blood pressure. Which action on the part of the nurse indicates
"offering" during delegation decisions?
1. "Did you check the client's blood pressure this morning?"
2. "You can use this stethoscope and sphygmomanometer to take the blood pressure."
3. "Would you fetch me the client's laboratory reports? I'll record the blood pressure."
4. "How is the client doing this morning? Let me look at yesterday's blood pressure
report." - CORRECT ANSWER 2. "You can use this stethoscope and
sphygmomanometer to take the blood pressure."

Offering involves making a suggestion to facilitate the achievement of a desirable client
care outcome. The statement, "You can use this stethoscope and sphygmomanometer
to take the blood pressure," is an example of offering. Asking begins with questions
related to the problem or issue regarding client care. "Did you check the client's blood
pressure this morning?" is an example of asking. Doing involves demonstrating the
specific task or behavior needed to improve client care. "Would you fetch me the client's
laboratory reports? I'll record the blood pressure," is an example of doing. "How is the
client doing this morning? Let me look at yesterday's blood pressure report," is an
example of supervision.

,Evolve Adaptive Quiz – Delegation latest
update 2024
4. "I will instruct the UAP to report if the client complains of discomfort." - CORRECT
ANSWER 2. "I will advise the UAP to reinforce the client teaching."

Reinforcement of client teaching is a task to be performed by licensed practical nurses
and licensed vocational nurses. This task should not be delegated to the UAP. The
tasks to be performed by the UAP include assisting the client with bathing. The UAP
can apply wet dressings to the client's skin. The UAP should report changes in skin
appearance or if the client complains of discomfort.

How does a nurse adopt the element of right circumstances during a task delegation?
1. By giving a clear and concise description of the task
2. By providing appropriate monitoring, evaluation, and intervention as needed
3. By delegating right tasks to the right person to be performed on the right person
4. By considering the appropriate client setting, available resources, and other relevant
factors - CORRECT ANSWER 4. By considering the appropriate client setting, available
resources, and other relevant factors

The nurse adopts the element of right circumstance by considering the appropriate
client setting, available resources, and other relevant factors during task delegation. By
giving a clear and concise description of the task, the nurse adopts the element of right
direction/communication. By providing appropriate monitoring, evaluation, and
intervention as needed, the nurse adopts the element of right supervision/evaluation
during task delegation. By giving the right tasks to the right person to be performed on a
client, the nurse adopts the element of right person.

Which nursing process involves delegation and verbal discussion with the healthcare
team?
1. Planning
2. Evaluation
3. Assessment
4. Implementation - CORRECT ANSWER 4. Implementation

The implementation process involves delegation and verbal discussion with the
healthcare team. Planning involves interpersonal or small group healthcare team
sessions. Evaluation involves the acquisition of verbal and nonverbal feedback.

ANSWER 1. Providing clear direction to the delegatee

, Evolve Adaptive Quiz – Delegation latest
update 2024
2. Understanding the skill set of the delegatee
4. Maintaining an open line of communication with the delegatee

Providing clear direction to the delegatee aids accomplishment of the specified task in
the given time. Understanding the specific skill set and capabilities of the delegatee is a
crucial element in the delegation process. Selecting a delegatee with the specific skill
set for the particular task is more productive than just selecting a competent individual.
Maintaining an open line of communication with the delegatee, without any derogatory
or offensive comments, yields a collaborative and productive work environment.
Providing verbal attack feedback may not produce effective change and could
undermine any long-term working relationship. Creating a working environment is an
essential and easy delegation task that is essential to promoting positive work output.

Which action in the delegation process represents accountability?
1. Providing open and honest feedback to the delegatee
2. Assisting other registered nurses with delegation decisions
3. Monitoring the client care given and determining outcomes
4. Assessing the ability of the delegatee and educating him or her about the task -
CORRECT ANSWER 3. Monitoring the client care given and determining outcomes

Monitoring client care and determining outcomes represents accountability of the task in
case of conflicts. Providing open and honest feedback to the delegatee improves work
performance and client care outcomes. The nurse can assist other registered nurses
with delegation decisions when there are safety issues, an urgent need to intervene, or
potential negative client outcomes. Assessing the ability of the delegatee and educating
him or her about the task indicates responsibility.
