Nurse Delegation Services

At Health Bridge, we offer comprehensive Nurse Delegation services to empower your staff or family members with the knowledge and skills necessary to safely administer medications and perform various healthcare tasks. Our experienced Registered Nurses provide hands-on training and education, ensuring that your team is well-equipped to deliver high-quality care with confidence and competence.

What is Nurse Delegation?

Nurse delegation involves the transfer of specific nursing tasks from a Registered Nurse (RN) to unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP), such as caregivers or family members, under the supervision and direction of the RN. This delegation process allows individuals without nursing licenses to perform certain healthcare tasks safely and effectively, under appropriate supervision and guidance.

Comprehensive Training in Essential Healthcare Tasks

Our Nurse Delegation services cover a wide range of essential healthcare tasks, including:

  • Medication Administration: Our RNs provide comprehensive training on how to safely administer medications, including proper dosage, route of administration, and medication storage. We ensure that your staff or family members understand the importance of medication adherence and follow best practices to minimize the risk of medication errors.
  • Wound Care: We educate your team on how to perform simple wound care procedures, such as cleaning, dressing changes, and monitoring for signs of infection. Our RNs provide guidance on wound assessment, wound healing principles, and appropriate wound care products to promote optimal healing.
  • Catheter Care: Our Nurse Delegation training includes instruction on how to perform catheter care, including catheter hygiene, emptying drainage bags, and recognizing signs of catheter-related complications. We emphasize the importance of maintaining aseptic technique to prevent urinary tract infections and other complications.
  • Ostomy Care and Maintenance: We provide specialized training in ostomy care and maintenance, including skin care, pouching techniques, and troubleshooting common issues. Our RNs offer practical tips and strategies to help your team support individuals with ostomies in managing their condition effectively.
  • Blood Glucose Monitoring: We teach your staff or family members how to perform blood glucose monitoring using glucometers, interpret blood glucose readings, and respond appropriately to hypo- or hyperglycemic episodes. Our RNs emphasize the importance of accurate glucose monitoring for individuals with diabetes to maintain optimal blood sugar control.
  • Insulin Administration: Our Nurse Delegation training covers the safe and proper administration of insulin, including insulin injection techniques, insulin storage guidelines, and insulin dose calculations. We ensure that your team understands the principles of insulin therapy and can administer insulin injections with confidence and competence.

Documentation Training to Ensure Compliance

In addition to hands-on clinical skills training, we provide guidance on how to effectively document care and medication administration to meet regulatory requirements and minimize the risk of citations. Our RNs offer practical tips and strategies for maintaining accurate and thorough documentation, ensuring that your organization remains in compliance with applicable regulations and standards.
