Pflege delegieren

In the DRG era, alongside the right mix of cases, it is equally important to consider how much differently qualified staff are involved in patient care. In modern terms, this means that in addition to the proper 'case mix', the right 'skill and grade mix' is also crucial. In this context, it is becoming increasingly important for qualified nurses to delegate nursing tasks to nursing assistants and FAGEs. While the art of delegation is known as a technique for self- and time management, there has so far been a lack of a book that translates this skill into the field of nursing. This is exactly what the book by Kelly-Heidenthal and Marthaler accomplishes.
