This illustrates the importance behind not only adequate nursing education in a medical and physical sense, but also the importance of learning proper social skills and positive communication between nurses and patients. Documentation on proper nurse supervision techniques is essential to bettering the medical community as a whole. Therefore, it is great that research such as the CLES and ACP exist. An important factor in delegating someone to any position is trust. In nursing, trust is essential because people's lives are in nurses in hands. Therefore, a supervising nurse needs to have ultimate trust the nurses they teach in order to delegate and assign them to patients properly. In addition, supervising nurses must have complete trust in themselves and their ability to delegate accurately. Otherwise, they may assign an ill-prepared resident nurse who does not have the proper experience or skills to assist their patients on their own. Lanette Anderson, who has been in the nursing profession for over thirty years, stresses that delegating should not be solely based on the amount of years a nurse has been in training as that may have little to do with the nurses' readiness (Anderson 2008). Instead, proper documentation of the nurse in training should be reviewed carefully in order to determine if they have achieved the educational objectives necessary to become a registered nurse (Anderson 2008). The easiest way to gauge whether a nurse in training has met the qualifications and...

After training, evaluation then consists of analyzing whether the nurse has completed the defined policies. This allows for a standardized way in which to delegate.
Guidelines and qualifications should be clearly defined and predetermined before nurses are trained by supervising nurses.

Nurses in training should then be placed into groups in which a qualified supervising nurse would preside as opposed to each nurse having an individual supervisor.

During training, it is important for the nurses to practice a personal approach with patients as studies have shown this can make the ob easier for the nurse and make the patient feel more at ease increasing their morale and physical condition or conditions.

Once training is complete, delegation takes place.

Extreme care should be taken during the delegation process.

Through analyzing a trainees performance based on systems such as the CLES, supervisors can determine whether or not a nurse is ready to perform the duites of a registered nurse on their own.

If the nurse is decided to be ready to perform the tasks required of them without supervision, training is complete and they may one day become a supervision nurse themselves.
