下列哪幾位病人適合指派給技術護理師（LPN）照顧？（選所有適合的）
Which clients are appropriate for a registered nurse (RN) to assign to a licensed practical nurse (LPN)? (Select all that apply.)
- AA client with an uncomplicated pneumonia requiring oral antibiotics✓ 正解患有單純性肺炎且需口服抗生素的客戶
- BA client newly admitted with a diagnosis of unstable angina新入院診斷為不穩定型心絞痛的客戶
- CA client 3 days postoperative with a stable abdominal wound dressing✓ 正解術後三天且腹部傷口敷料穩定的客戶
- DA client requiring a complex tracheostomy care and frequent suctioning需要複雜氣切護理及頻繁抽吸的客戶
- EA client with a well-controlled chronic condition needing daily insulin✓ 正解患有慢性狀況且每日需注射胰島素的客戶
NCLEX 指派原則（Delegation）強調 LPN 適合照護病情「穩定（stable）」且具「可預測性（predictable）」護理需求的病人。RN 必須負責評估（Assessment）、診斷、教學（Teaching）與高複雜度的照護。不穩定心絞痛（B）屬急性不穩定，複雜氣切照護（D）需專業呼吸評估，兩者均超出 LPN 的執業範圍與責任邊界。
LPNs are appropriately assigned to clients with stable, predictable conditions such as uncomplicated pneumonia, stable postoperative wounds, and well-controlled chronic diseases requiring routine insulin administration. These tasks fall within their scope of practice, unlike unstable or complex assessments reserved for RNs.
美國各州對 LPN/LVN 的執業範圍（Scope of Practice）規定差異很大。NCLEX 考試採用的是全國標準，即 LPN 不得執行「初次評估（Initial Assessment）」與「教學（Teaching）」，RN 必須保留所有分析與判斷的決策權。
