The practical nurse (PN) is assigning care for a group of clients on the urology medical unit. Which client care interventions should the PN assign to the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP)? (Select all that apply.)

A. Transport a urine culture sample to the laboratory: Transporting specimens is within the UAP’s scope, as it does not require clinical judgment or assessment and ensures timely processing of lab tests. B. Empty bedside drainage unit for a client with indwelling urinary catheter: UAPs can safely measure and record urine output from drainage units, provided they follow proper infection control procedures and report abnormal findings to the licensed nurse. C. Obtain a post-voided residual (PVR) volume: Measuring PVR requires bladder scanning or catheterization, which involves clinical assessment and skill, and must be performed by a licensed nurse. D. Teach the client with fluid restrictions how to measure urine output: Patient education involves clinical knowledge and judgment, making this intervention the responsibility of the PN or RN rather than the UAP. E. Irrigate an indwelling urinary catheter for a client with bladder suspension: Catheter irrigation is an invasive procedure requiring aseptic technique and clinical judgment, which is beyond the UAP’s scope of practice.
