SAFE DELEGATION OF CLIENT CARE

Safe Delegation of Client Care

Introduction

Under certain situation, a doctor may delegate chosen jobs for an exact purchaser to an unregulated care provider. The conclusion to delegate a facet of the client's care should be the deduction of that client's nurse. The best concern of the purchaser should be embedded in all facets of decision-making considering delegation. (Phillips 2004) Each position is exclusive and should be determined on its own merits. The conclusion about it or not to delegate is convoluted and should encompass concern of purchaser care desires (including purchaser components and task factors), care natural environment components and unregulated care provider factors.
