The nurse is delegating tasks to an unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP). Which client task should the nurse delegate to the UAP?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
Assisting with a food tray for a client with mild dementia is within the UAP's scope of practice, as it involves basic assistance with activities of daily living. Options A, B, and D require clinical judgment or invasive procedures, which are outside the UAP's scope.
