Nurse Delegation & RN Assessments

Delegation starts with a careful nursing assessment. We evaluate each client's condition and needs to determine whether delegation is safe and appropriate — then set up delegated tasks in full compliance with Washington State requirements.

  • Comprehensive RN assessment of each client's health status and care needs
  • Consent & documentation handled properly from day one
  • Clear delegation decisions — which tasks, which caregivers, and why

Caregiver Training, Supervision & Evaluation

Great delegation depends on confident caregivers. We teach each delegated task hands-on, verify competency, and return for scheduled supervision and re-evaluations so quality never slips.

  • Task-specific skills training with demonstration and return-demonstration
  • Scheduled supervision visits and re-evaluations at required intervals
  • Audit-ready documentation for every training, visit, and evaluation

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers most providers and families ask for first.

What is nurse delegation?
Nurse delegation is a Washington State program that allows a registered nurse to train and authorize qualified caregivers to perform specific nursing tasks — like medication administration or insulin injections — for clients in community settings such as adult family homes and assisted living facilities.
Which caregivers can receive delegation?
Caregivers must hold the appropriate Washington State credential (such as Certified Nursing Assistant or Home Care Aide) and complete the required nurse delegation core training before an RN can delegate tasks to them. We'll help you confirm your team's eligibility.
How often does the RN come back after the initial setup?
Washington State requires ongoing supervision and regular re-evaluation of every delegated task. We schedule visits at the required intervals — and more often when a client's condition changes — so you're always covered.
How quickly can we get started?
In most cases we can schedule an initial assessment within days of your call. Reach out with your facility details and resident needs, and we'll give you a clear timeline right away.
What does it cost?
Pricing depends on the number of clients, tasks, and caregivers involved. Call us at (425) 286-0545 for a straightforward quote — no pressure, no obligation.
