Which of the following statements made by a nurse related to the organization of client care re-quires follow-up by the mentor?

1. “I had my LPN bring the Foley catheterization supplies into the room so they’d be there when I got there.”
2. “I delegated all the stable vital signs to my nursing assistant and the treatments to the LPN.”
3. “I was taking vitals on one client, dangling a second client while I had the third expelling an enema.”
4. “Organization was never a strength of mine, but I believe I’m getting better at completing all my client’s care.”

Good time management involves completing one task before starting another. If possible, com-plete the activities started with one client before moving on to the next. Care will then become less fragmented, and the nurse will be better able to focus on what is being done for each client. As a result, it is less likely that errors will be made. The remaining options are not reflective of poor management and so do not need follow-up.
