Advice needed

the question involved team nursing and what happens in a team nursing environment. of course, a team leader (rn) delegates to lpns and ap to carry out certain tasks. however, the exact wording on the test was "an rn delegates patient care to a group of patients." when i took the test, i, of course, marked through that one as soon as i read it and chose a different answer involving a charge nurse overseeing patient care.

i feel like there's something missing from the post, regarding exactly what the question is asking, and what your choice was, and what the correct answer is. i find it very difficult to agree with a student when they don't give all of the data (because there is usually a key factor they are leaving out, and not on purpose).

I do not recall the exact question, but it was something along the lines of "In a setting utilizing Team Nursing, which of the following would you expect to see take place?"

And the choices were:

1) An RN delegates to an AP to give medications

2) An RN performs no direct patient care

3) An RN delegates patient care to a group of patients. (According to my professor, the right answer)

4) A charge nurse oversees patient care.

I chose 4, but it was counted wrong. However, I am confused as to how an RN delegating patient care TO a group of patients can be correct? It is more of a problem with the English language than anything else, as the answer is clearly worded to mean delegating from an RN to patients. It was a typo, I'm sure, as answer 3 should read "An RN delegates patient care to a group of healthcare professionals" or something along the lines of that. As soon as I read the question, I immediately marked out answer 3, as it makes absolutely no sense the way it is.
