— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
LPN 的權限包括給藥（口服）、協助既定教學（Reinforce teaching）、以及術後常規監測。但「初次評估（Initial assessment）」與「告知後同意（Informed consent）」是 RN 的專業責任，涉及法律義務與專業評估，不能委派。
The LPN's scope includes administering medications (oral), reinforcing established teaching, and routine postoperative monitoring. However, the initial nursing assessment and the informed consent process are RN responsibilities involving legal obligations and professional judgment and cannot be delegated.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國法規對委派權限有嚴格定義（State Practice Act）；台灣護理師執業範圍較統一，但同樣強調評估與護理計畫制定需由 RN 負責。
