The nurse is working with unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP). Which task can the nurse safely assign to UAP?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
Collecting a urine specimen from a Foley catheter is within the UAP's scope, as it involves a straightforward procedure with proper training. Colostomy irrigation and refilling enteral feeding containers require nursing judgment and are not safe for UAP to perform.
