RNs are expected to delegate effectively and safely in a
variety of health care settings, including long-term care facilities,
schools, and hospitals. In some settings, the availability of RNs
creates challenges for safe delegation. In skilled nursing facilities
and assisted living facilities, assistive personnel such as certified
nursing assistants provide the majority of direct nursing care.
The requirements for RN staffing in these facilities is minimal
(Mitty et al., 2010; Mueller et al., 2006), and in a number of
states, UAP are permitted to administer medication
