Answer to Question 1

A, B, E
The decision to delegate nursing tasks and actions is based on a number of different factors. Some of these factors include: 1) client needs and stability; 2) complexity of the task; 3) predictability of the outcome of the task or action; 4) available resources to meet the needs of the client; and 5) the judgment of the nurse (NCSBN, 1995). Assessment, evaluation, nursing diagnosis, and planning are nursing tasks which cannot be delegated to Nursing Assistive Personnel. Overdelegation can occur when the nurse is immersed in paperwork; nurse-only tasks should not be delegated to other non-nurse personnel. Nursing tasks and actions can only be delegated by the RN to NAPs, and NAPs cannot redelegate tasks.

Answer to Question 2

B
A capital budget accounts for the purchase of major new or replacement equipment. An operational
budget accounts for the income and expenses associated with day-to-day activity within a department
or organization. A construction budget is developed when renovations or new structures are planned.
A balanced budget is one where the expenses are equal to or less than the revenues.
