Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who presents with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD), Which of the following task can the nurse delegate to the UAP?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Assist the client with oral hygiene following inhaled corticosteroid administration by the nurse. This task can be delegated to the UAP as it involves providing basic oral care after a medication has been administered by the nurse. The UAP can help ensure the client's mouth is clean and free of any residue from the inhaled corticosteroid, promoting oral health and comfort.
Other choices are incorrect because:
A: Administering albuterol via inhalation device requires assessment and monitoring by a licensed healthcare provider.
B: Performing the initial respiratory assessment to determine baseline respiratory rate requires critical thinking and clinical judgment, which are beyond the scope of practice for a UAP.
D: Assessing lung sounds to determine wheezing requires specialized knowledge and skill to accurately interpret findings, making it inappropriate to delegate to a UAP.
