Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is providing care to a client admitted with pressure injuries. The nurse develops a plan of care focusing on healing measures and prevention of further injury. Which task does the nurse delegate to the nursing assistive personnel (NAP)?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale:
Correct
Answer: A - Turn and reposition the patient every 2 hours.


Rationale: Turning and repositioning the patient every 2 hours is a task that can be safely delegated to nursing assistive personnel (NAP) as it does not require specialized nursing knowledge or assessment skills. This task is essential for preventing pressure injuries and promoting healing by relieving pressure on vulnerable areas of the body. NAP can perform this task under the guidance and direction of the nurse, ensuring patient comfort and skin integrity.

Summary of other choices:
B: Applying hydrocolloid dressing requires specific training and knowledge of wound care, making it inappropriate to delegate to NAP.
C: Changing dressings on pressure injuries requires assessment of wound condition and potential complications, which should be done by a nurse.
D: Assessing the patient's skin condition involves critical thinking and clinical judgment, which are within the scope of nursing practice and should not be delegated to NAP.
