Answer to Question 2

D
In functional nursing the division of labor is assigned according to specific tasks and technical aspects of the job. It has been defined as work allocation by functions or tasks, such as passing medicine, changing dressings, giving baths, or taking vital signs. Under functional nursing, the nurse identifies the tasks to be done for a shift. The work is divided and assigned to personnel, who focus on completing the assigned tasks. Tasks are divided based on the complexity of judgment and technical knowledge and a variety of workers other than RNs to complete the as-signment.
