A client requiring a gastrostomy tube dressing change A client who requires transport to the radiology department in a wheelchair A client with a Foley catheter for whom a 24-hour urine collection is in progress A client who underwent surgery an hour earlier and has a nasogastric tube and a Foley catheter Rationale: The nurse must base assignments on the basis of the skills of the staff member and the needs of the client. The nursing assistant is capable of caring for the client with a Foley catheter for whom a 24-hour urine collection is in progress and the client who requires transport to the radiology department in a wheelchair. The nursing assistant is skilled in such tasks. The client who has just undergone surgery will require specific monitoring in addition to recording of vital signs. Dressing changes and tracheostomy care are not performed by unlicensed personnel. Test-Taking Strategy: Focus on the subject, assignments for the nursing assistant. Think about the skills that the nursing assistant can perform and remember that the nursing assistant may perform tasks that are noninvasive.
