A registered nurse is delegating tasks to unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP). Which of the following tasks is appropriate to delegate to a UAP?

Assessing a patient's lung sounds Teaching a diabetic patient about insulin administration Assisting a patient with ambulation Administering oral medications

Correct Answer:

Assisting a patient with ambulation

Explanation:

Rationale: UAPs can assist with activities of daily living, such as ambulation, for stable patients. Assessing lung sounds (A) and teaching about medications (B) require nursing judgment and education, which are within the scope of practice for a registered nurse. Administering oral medications (D) is typically within the scope of practice for an LPN/LVN, but not a UAP.
