護理師僅能指派標準化、重複性且低風險的任務給 UAP。生命徵象監測、肢體活動協助、日常生活自理(口腔護理、床上擦澡)及尿量測量均屬 UAP 執業範圍。然而,護理教育指導(如胰島素衛教)屬於專業評估與教學,必須由 RN 親自執行,不可委派。
Unlicensed Assistive Personnel (UAP) may perform standardized, low-risk tasks such as measuring vital signs, assisting with ambulation, providing hygiene care, and documenting output. However, tasks requiring clinical judgment, assessment, or patient education, such as teaching insulin administration, must remain the responsibility of the registered nurse.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國護理師對 UAP 的監督權責明確;台灣護理師常需承擔所有病人瑣事,助理人員配置與授權範圍相對模糊。
