Rationale The unlicensed nursing personnel (UNP) can be delegated to care for a client in an acute care setting if the client is stable. So, the vital signs can be monitored by the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) if the client has stable vital signs. Client teaching is in the scope of the registered nurse (RN). Reinforcement of the teaching can be delegated to the UAP. Assessing laboratory reports is the role of the RN; this task may not be delegated to unlicensed personnel. Evaluating client status is the role of the RN; this task is outside the scope of practice of the UAP.
