MULTIPLE CHOICE


9. A nurse working on a cardiac unit delegated taking vital signs to an experienced unlicensed
assistive personnel (UAP). Four hours later, the nurse notes the client’s blood pressure is much
higher than previous readings, and the client’s mental status has changed. What action by the
nurse would most likely have prevented this negative outcome? a. Determining if the UAP
knew how to take blood pressure
Double-checking the UAP by taking another blood pressure
Providing more appropriate supervision of the UAP
Taking the blood pressure instead of delegating the task
ANS: C
Supervision is one of the five rights of delegation and includes directing, evaluating, and
following up on delegated tasks. The nurse should either have asked the UAP about the vital
signs or instructed the UAP to report them right away. An experienced UAP should know how
to take vital signs and the nurse should not have to assess this at this point. Double-checking the
work defeats the purpose of delegation. Vital signs are within the scope of practice for a UAP
and are permissible to delegate. The only appropriate answer is that the nurse did not provide
adequate instruction to the UAP.

KEY: Supervision| delegation| unlicensed assistive personnel

NOT: Client Needs Category: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care

10. A newly graduated nurse in the hospital states that, since she is so new, she cannot
participate in quality improvement (QI) projects. What response by the precepting nurse is best?
“All staff nurses are required to participate in quality improvement here.”
“Even being new, you can implement activities designed to improve care.”
“It’s easy to identify what indicators should be used to measure quality.”
“You should ask to be assigned to the research and quality committee.”
ANS: B
The preceptor should try to reassure the nurse that implementing QI measures is not out of line
for a newly licensed nurse. Simply stating that all nurses are required to participate does not
help the nurse understand how that is possible and is dismissive. Identifying indicators of
quality is not an easy, quick process and would not be the best place to suggest a new nurse to
start. Asking to be assigned to the QI committee does not give the nurse information about how
to implement QI in daily practice.

KEY: Quality improvement
