Practice Standards set for Nurses.

Nurses shouldn’t delegate Skilled Job to Unregistered Care providers of the TEAM.
 
  1. The responsibility for the practice of nursing cannot be delegated. The nurse continue to be responsible for the overall assessment, determination of client status, care planning, interventions and care evaluation even when tasks are delegated to an unskilled care provider.
2. Under certain conditions, a nurse may delegate selected tasks for a specific client to such care provide when she is busy in an equally serious client and can’t send a qualified provider.
3. The decision to delegation aspect of the client’s care must be taken keeping ethics in mind.
4. The best interest of the client must be embedded in all aspects of decision-making regarding delegation. Each situation is unique and must be decided on its own merits.
5. The perception of the people about the skill and competency of nurses will be demoralizing.
6. IF the Unskilled care provider can provide ECG services and collect blood for Lab tests, administer par-enteral drugs, What is the difference perceived by a common man between a Registered Nurse and Class IV members of the team?
                Let’s think about it  & Teach  Ethics to our future Nurses perfectly.
