Complete an ATI Focused Review® and send me a detailed summary (2-3 sentences each) of 4 concepts that you learned from the focused review. *Transformational leaders empower followers to assume res... ponsibility for a communal vision, and personal development is a secondary outcome. Transactional leaders focus on immediate problems, maintaining the status quo and using rewards to motivate followers. *Maslow’s hierarchy - The nurse should consider this hierarchy of human needs when prioritizing interventions. For example, the nurse should prioritize aclient’s: Need for airway, oxygenation (or breathing), circulation, and potential for disability over need for shelter. Need for a safe and secure environment over a need for socialization *Delegating is the process of transferring the authority and responsibility to another team member to complete a task, while retaining the accountability. RNs may delegate to other RNs, PNs, and APs. RNs must be knowledgeable about the applicable state nurse practice act and regulations regarding the use of PNs and APs. RNs must delegate tasks so that they can complete higher level tasks that only RNs can perform. This allows more efficient use of all members of the health care team. PNs may delegate to other PNs and APs. *Task Factors Prior to delegating client care: Predictability of outcome. Will the completion of the task have a predictable outcome? Is it a routine treatment? Is it a new treatment? Potential for harm. Is there a chance that something negative can happen to the client (risk for bleeding, risk for aspiration)? Is the client unstable? Complexity of care. Are complex tasks required as a part of the client’s care? Is the delegate legally able to perform the task and does he have the skills necessary? Need for problem solving and innovation. Is nursing judgment required while performing the task? Does it require nursing assessment skills? Level of interaction with the client.
