    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.)

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Irrigate an indwelling urinary catheter for a client with bladder suspension. - This procedure requires specialized skills and should be performed by a licensed nurse. B. Empty bedside drainage unit for a client with an indwelling urinary catheter. - UAP can safely perform this task by following established protocols to maintain catheter hygiene. C. Transport a urine culture sample to the laboratory. - This task involves safely transporting a specimen and does not require specialized medical knowledge. D. Obtain a post-voided residual (PVR) volume. - This task can be performed by UAP under supervision or with appropriate training, using a bladder scanner or assisting the client to measure remaining urine. E. Teach the client with fluid restrictions how to measure urine output. - Teaching tasks generally fall under the responsibility of licensed nursing staff and may require specific medical knowledge.
