Overview
Delegation of professional nursing tasks to others can be a very complicated duty. Some nurses avoid it by underdelegating, some might overdelegate, and others do not understand the definition of delegation. This week we will examine these concepts, as well as what is meant by accountability, authority, and responsibility. We will also begin to explore how to deal with conflicts and problems that can arise in the workplace.
