ATI RN VATI Fundamentals S 2019 Final | Nurselytic

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Using a pulse oximeter to measure oxygen saturation for a client who is ready for discharge. This task can be safely delegated to an assistive personnel (AP) as it involves a straightforward procedure that does not require clinical judgment or interpretation of results. The AP can be trained on how to use the pulse oximeter accurately and report the results to the nurse for further assessment if needed.

A: Administering a rectal suppository requires assessment and knowledge of client condition, making it inappropriate for delegation to an AP.
B: Instructing a client on using an incentive spirometer involves teaching and assessment, which should be done by a nurse.
C: Measuring blood glucose for a client with diabetic ketoacidosis requires critical thinking and immediate intervention based on results, so it should not be delegated to an AP.
