Delegation Tips for Nurses

Delegation is a tough thing to master as a new nurse.  While the NCLEXNCLEX tells you which tasks are appropriate to delegate, it doesn’t exactly outline how to go about doing it. I realize that not all units have certified nursing assistants (CNAs) or patient care technicians (techs), but many do.  This post is for […]

Doctors and Nurses: A Troubled Partnership

April 7, 2014 By Kati Kleber, MSN RN 1 Comment
