Nurses must act to prevent unsafe and unethical care practices. Many resources exist to resolve ethical and other practice dilemmas.
Scenario: the nurse is busy and short of resources for discharging a patient; she delegates the IV disconnect to a nursing student which is wrong.
Compare Virginia state’s Nurse Practice Act to one other state’s Nurse Practice Act. According to your state’s definition of delegation, was the nurse able to delegate this task to the nursing assistant? Why or why not?
