The registered nurse is teaching a newly hired nurse about communicating with delegatees during delegation.

Which statement made by the newly hired nurse indicates the need for further learning?

a. "I should assist the staff in interpreting."

b. "I should assist the staff in decision-making."

c. "I should assist the staff in achieving optimal functioning."

d. "I should assist the staff in sorting out and articulating values."

Answer is D.

Explanation:

Assisting the staff in sorting out and articulating values is not the work of the registered nurse, it is the work of the health care provider or the physician.

The registered nurses should be involved in all the remaining options, that is, they should assist staff in interpreting in order to achieve a better outcome, and they should assist in optimal functioning of the staff, because it has been discovered that, the task allotted by the RNs will only have a better outcome only under their supervision. It is also their duty in decision making.
