Q

Delegation

A

You assign a task to someone who has the authority to do the task, but you’re still responsible for the outcome

22
Q

Even if you don’t NEED to delegate something, it might be a good idea to do so anyway because

A

it gives you practice at delegating

23
Q

The first 2 things to think about when delegating are

A

What is the policy regarding what staff can do
and
Is there any exception to the policy

24
Q

Keep in mind that you’re not delegating to a position, you’re

A

delegating to a specific person. So you need to think about them as an individual (are they competent? are they busy right now?)

25
The approach to delegation depends on whether
an individual is assigned to work with you or whether an individual is working with a group. (If they're working with a group, you don't know exactly what other directions they're being pulled in)
26
What to Consider in Delegation: What is happening in the larger context
of the person’s life
27
What to Consider in Delegation: Whether this person is an organizational
employee or a contracted employee
28
Remember that the bottom line regarding delegation is
safe patient care
29
One of the differences about delegating in a small hosp vs big hosp
in a small hosp, you prob trained the delegatee yourself, so you know better what they can do
30
Difference in delegating in ICU vs other areas
in an ICU you can literally see what the assistant is doing because you're right there
31
In a rural hosp, the delegatees tend to be pretty stable because
they live in the community, they don't move around
32
parodoxically, delegation can be
time-consuming AND time-saving
33
delegatees don't ___ nursing care, they ___ it
don't substitute it, they expand it
34
What does it mean to say nurses are knowledge workers
it means that nursing is more than just following a series of tasks
35
Informatics is what has allowed us to advance the way in which we provide nursing care because it allows us to
synthesize the latest information into our practices
