Delegation is an important aspect of nursing care, but it’s essential that all parties understand the rules of the game. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing issued a standard (The Five Rights of Delegation) in 1995 that remains effectively unchanged today. Make sure everyone is on the same page next time you have to delegate, or have been delegated to.

Those are the standard rules in a hospital. This is why there are so many departments in a hospital, because every room specializes in a certain disease of patients.
