Good source of delegation ?'s ???

The only advice I can offer is what we just learned in Kaplan. When it comes to delegation, an RN can never delegate teaching or assessment and a CNA can only do "standard, unchanging procedures" like AM care. The main thing they taught us is that the nurse can never delegate assessment or teaching. Hope this helps.

I just came back from taking the test. I didn't have one question about delegation! I also had just 75 questions, and know for sure that I will be returning to take the test again. Good luck to you.

Hello everybody I just passed my NCLEX, Vermont Stateboard. You really need to practice more on delegation and prioritization questions.

If kaplan taught you the above, they are teaching you to fail:uhoh21: An RN does delegate,teach and assess. A LPN and a CNA can not. Only stable patients goes to the LPN and CNA.

i think what ckh23 meant was that an RN cannot delegate a patient/client that requires teaching and or assessment. Unlike Saunders, Kaplan has a lot of delegation and priority questions so that's the only advice i can give ya.

I have been using a book called "Prioritization, Delegation & Assignment"(ISBN# 139780323044073). I take my boards tomorrow and all the questions in the book are on prioritizing and delegation. I did the whole book. I am thinking it is a must have for the NCLEX-RN boards but I will let you know after tmorrow.

You can get it on Amazon for about $25 new....I will be selling mine IF I pass tomorrow (will know on Monday), probably for $17.

I second this, everyone should complete this book before nclex - well worth the money!
