Clinical efficiency is crucial to success in today's home care market. With the advent of new categories of multiskilled workers and the increasing number of unlicensed assistive personnel, home care nurses must be skilled in the process of clinical delegation. From the authors of the AJN Book of the Year winner, Clinical Delegation Skills, comes the ultimate how-to guide on the professional practice of clinical delegation in the community practice setting. Written from a nursing perspective, and completely focused on the home health setting, Home Care Nursing Delegation Skills will show you how to build a strong foundation, understand the laws and regulations, establish effective procedures, know your responsibilities, and incorporate the fundamentals, such as decision making for professional practice, practice innovative, two-way communication techniques, test the competency of the people you work with, learn conflict resolution techniques, and implement easy-to-use checklists and charts, all of which keep you on track so your organization can provide optimum patient care and you can delegate tasks effectively, be an effective critical thinker, and establish effective two-way communication.
