護理長正在分配工作給助理人員 (UAP)，請問下列哪項任務適合委任？
A nurse manager is planning to delegate tasks to an Unlicensed Assistive Personnel (UAP). Which task is appropriate to delegate?
- AProviding discharge education to a client對病人提供出院衛教
- BAssisting a stable client with ambulation✓ 正解協助穩定的病人下床行走
- CAssessing a client's surgical wound評估病人的手術傷口
- DAdministering oral medications給予口服藥物
委任（Delegation）的核心原則是護理師需確保任務具備「常規性（Routine）」、「穩定性（Stable）」且「非侵入性（Non-invasive）」。UAP 適合執行屬於 ADL（日常生活活動）的協助工作，如協助下床。而評估、給藥及衛教涉及臨床判斷（Clinical Judgment）或專業技術，必須由註冊護理師（RN）親自執行，不得委任給 UAP。
The core principle of delegation is that the nurse must ensure the task is routine, stable, and non-invasive. UAPs are appropriate for assisting with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as helping a client out of bed. Assessment, medication administration, and patient education involve clinical judgment or specialized skills and must be performed personally by the registered nurse (RN); they may not be delegated to a UAP.
在美國，RN 對委任工作負有監督責任（Accountability）。UAP 的職責範疇受各州護理委員會（State Board of Nursing）規範，各機構亦有詳細的 Task List，RN 必須明確知道 UAP 能做什麼，不能越界。
