Question 1 of 5
A nurse on a medical surgical unit is caring for a group of clients with the assistance of a licensed practical nurse (LPN) and assistive personnel. Which of the following tasks should the nurse assign to the LPN?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, assigning the task of obtaining a urine specimen from an older adult client to the LPN. This task falls within the scope of practice for an LPN as it involves basic nursing skills and does not require critical thinking or assessment. LPNs are trained to perform routine procedures such as specimen collection under the supervision of a registered nurse. Providing postmortem care (
A) requires emotional support and specialized knowledge beyond the LPN's scope. Reinforcing dietary teaching (
B) and accompanying a client to physical therapy (
C) involve critical thinking and assessment skills that are typically within the RN's scope.
Therefore, D is the correct choice.
