delegation

What was the answer you chose and the reason you chose it?

The RN has to do the initial set of vitals.

that was what I thought but UWorld said IT can be delegated to the UAP

Yes, initial assessments must be done by the RN. I look at it as Stable versus Unstable with predictable or unpredictable outcomes.

Do you remember what the question and answer choices were?

The RN has to do initial assessment. I just found this out in my ATI live review for delegation. UAPs can deal with stable patients but the RN has to do an initial assessment for a transfer patient for accuracy.

It has to do with the facility. At mine, the UP can do the initial set of vitals and the RN will do the assessment. They report the findings ASAP and if needed, the RN will recheck them. The ATI answer is not looking that this is facility based and not category based.
