Question:

Which of the following is true with regard to delegation of client care responsibilities? Select all that apply. 

1. The nurse must know the nursing model that underlies care at the institution. 

2. The nurse delegates in accordance with demands on his/her time. 

3. The nurse validates with the nonregistered nurse (non-RN) caregiver that he/she has performed the same activity before. 

4. The nurse retains the right to determine which tasks are delegated. 

5. The nurse must document that the task has been delegated and to whom.

Answer:1,3,4

Delegation involves the reassignment or transfer of selected aspects of a job to selected persons in selected situations. Although responsibility for completion of a task or activity can be delegated, accountability for that task remains with the RN. In delegating nursing acts, functions, or tasks, the RN must consider the nursing model to determine the appropriate delegation of assignment. Prior to delegation, the RN validates that the non-RN caregiver has orientation and experience in completion of the activity. The amount of time the nurse has does not direct the delegation procedure; the focus is on the task and capability of the staff to whom the task is delegated. It is not necessary to document that the task has been delegated and to whom; however, the outcome of the task should be documented by the nurse.

问题：

关于病人护理责任的委托，以下哪一项是正确的？选择所有适用的选项。

1.护士必须了解该机构护理的基础护理模式。

2.护士代表按时间要求进行。

3.护士与未登记护士（非RN）护理人员确认他/她以前执行过相同的活动。

4.护士保留决定委托哪些任务的权利。

5.护士必须记录这项任务已被委派以及委托给谁。

答案：1,3,4

委托是指在特定的情况下，将工作的某些方面重新分配或转移给选定的人。虽然完成一项任务或活动的责任可以委派，但该任务的责任仍由注册护士承担。在委托护理行为、职能或任务时，RN必须考虑护理模式来确定适当的委派。授权前，注册护士确认非注册护士护理者在完成活动方面有指导和经验。护士不指导委托程序的时间；重点是被委派任务的工作人员的任务和能力。无需记录任务已被委派以及委派给谁；但是，任务的结果应被护士记录下来。
