#WeNurses - Thursday 14th July 2022 8:30pm (GMT Standard Time) The delegation dilemma !

If you haven't joined in a tweet chat before it's very simple.    Here's a guide





 Chat Details

 

Hosted by WeNurses using #WeNurses

To delegate or not to delegate that is the question !! Delegation requires some complex thought: who do you delegate to? what do you delegate? how do you ensure that delegation is appropriate? how much support should you give? The NMC have a helpful Caring With Confidence video on Delegation that starts to unpick some of these questions:



This tweetchat aims to explore the key aspects of delegation and will follow the tweetchat formula below: 

From 8:15pm Pre tweetchat 2 x poll questions 

8:30 - 9pm Tweetchat 3 questions 

From 9pm Post tweetchat 2 x poll questions 

  

The tweetchat will ask the following questions: 

  • Question 1 (poll) - Are you confident with delegation in your nursing role? Yes / No / Other (please state) 
  • Question 2 (poll) - How often do you delegate in your nursing role? More than daily / Daily / Weekly / Other (please state) 
  • Question 3 (tweetchat) - What stops us delegating in nursing? 
  • Question 4 (tweetchat) - What are the consequences of not delegating / inappropriate delegation in nursing? 
  • Question 5 (tweetchat) - What are the key parts of delegation that as nurses we need to be mindful of when delegating? 
  • Question 6 (poll) - Why should nurses delegate? To save time / Build others skills / Ensure care is safe / Other 
  • Question 7 (poll) - Think back to the last time you delegated in your nursing role .... how did you ensure you delegated appropriately? You checked in on the person  / You worked alongside the person / You asked the person to document / Other (please state)

I think that there are many reasons ... eg sometimes it's confidence, sometimes it's 'easier to do it yourself', sometimes there is no one to delegate to ! #WeNurses https://twitter.com/WeNurses/status/1547665483817750528

@WeNurses Lack of delegation skills taught during student nursing. Lack of self confidence/self worth. Fear of others capabilities/abilities. Poor team relationships - not knowing each other’s skills and best assets. Hierarchy structures - not wanting to ask those ‘above’ you. #WeNurses

@WeNurses @thepaedsnurse great question! #WeNurses Definite fear of professional accountability! Sometimes you seek peace of mind from doing a task yourself rather than delegating. Unsure if others feel the same? This has got less during my career

@KaiziKeysi
14 July 2022 20:37
Certain situations can potentially jeorpardise delegation, for eg colleagues you are meant to assign the task have already so much on their plate and will be difficult to handle another task. Short staffing level makes the care more challenging too.#WeNurses #MDXNA https://twitter.com/wenurses/status/1547665483817750528

@KatieKtquinney @WeNurses Good point - delegation requires decision-making and establishing priorities which takes thinking and a degree of experience. Why doing it as early as you can is helpful #WeNurses

@NurseCharl
14 July 2022 20:40
@thepaedsnurse @WeNurses #WeNurses Yes! Absolutely there is a fear. I also think from my experiences that delegation was not taught at university and was difficult to facilitate in practice. I try to push students to practice this on small scale on placements now as it was something I lacked confidence!

@WeNurses Sometimes it can be down to staff attitudes as well. We have CSWs who will purposely be off with other staff so they won't be asked again. #wenurses
@reboverend_RNc
14 July 2022 20:41
@sslaterbooth @WeNurses That suggests to me it isn’t a space which promotes learning- trying it out without fear of judgement is key. Self-efficacy comes through practice #WeNurses

@WeNurses The consequence of not delegating are: Patients not receiving the care they deserve and need. Medications being late. Students not observing good time management and delegation skills. Staff burnout - you can’t do everything yourself! #WeNurses
@AgencyNurse
14 July 2022 20:42
You can become overwhelmed and burnt out, this can have a huge knock on effect to patient care and can even become a patient safety issue. In addition to this it doesn't give others the opportunity to grow and develop and this can effect retention #WeNurses https://twitter.com/WeNurses/status/1547667245731659776

@WeNurses #wenurses not delegating can mean tasks are left undone or not completed to a good standard. Patients can feel unseen and unheard. You need to know the skills and autonomy of the person you are delegating to ensure they can be trusted to carry out the he task being delegated.

I think that one of the most important things to remember is that delegation does not end with the allocation ... you need to follow up, check all is ok, check in with learning, explain more if needed ... delegation is an investment in people not an offloading of a task #WeNurses https://twitter.com/WeNurses/status/1547669258963849221

@WeNurses Set clear expectations to the person you are delegating to, this gives them the chance to say I can't do that #wenurses

@WeNurses Authority?, Responsibility Accountability, Competency. Delegation requires a clear description of the task, the responsibilities and authority assocciated with it. #Wenurses

The skill mix.Think about the capabilities & competency of the person we’re designating the task. Be equal in delegating as there should be balance depending on the competency. Trust and help each other. We are team. #WeNurses #MDXNA https://twitter.com/wenurses/status/1547669258963849221

@WeNurses I've only heard comments like this when people delegate a task and then sit down themselves and chat or twiddle their thumbs. I tell people to pull the other person on this rather than make comments or snidey remarks #wenurses

@WeNurses KNOW THE TEAM If you don’t know their skills, experience & knowledge - delegation won’t be effective Students are part of the team - delegate to support patients & their learning (no, don’t just get them to do obs) Be mindful of everyone’s situation before delegating. #WeNurses

@AgencyNurse Agree, the debrief or reflection - lots can be learned by all in that moment. Plus it role models care and connection #wenurses

@WeNurses Emotional Intelligence??: the ability to manage yourself (emotions) and your relationships with others is critical to effective delegation.#WeNurses
@sslaterbooth
14 July 2022 20:56
@WeNurses #wenurses We need to be mindful that the people we are delegating to are likely to have their own priorities too. This means we need to listen and show they are being heard! Let them know how important the task is and how soon it needs to be done.

@WeNurses Sounds like the person delegating needs skills to be mindful of the teams situation. As well as the receiver having the skills to communicate their workload and explain that they are unable to do what they are asked for at that moment. Communication and compromise. #WeNurses

@WeNurses Doing it fairly amongst the team, that it's within the person's level of confidence and competence (teach/support if they don't know, may take time to begin but in the long run will save time when more are competent with task), not just delegating unwanted jobs #WeNurses
@NurseCharl
14 July 2022 20:57
@WeNurses #WeNurses Often when we delegate is an issue. Asking someone to do a task for you when you are unable to when they have a high workload is ineffective. I trialled a delegation negotiation, “if I delegate this job to you what can I take off your plate?” Good in small teams

@reboverend_RNc

@WeNurses Take a risk based approach- is this a simple skill? Are there rules which become more complicated & require decisions to be made Are there unknown factors making task complex? Can the person do them? What support do they need - & is it available? Look after delegatee! #WeNurses

@DollyScalpach @WeNurses #wenurses we need to be prepared to accept an answer of sorry I have not got time to do that without asking what else have they got to do that is more important. We need to be able to trust our co-workers that when they say they are busy that they are.

@sslaterbooth @WeNurses I’ve seen it happen in some teams. It’s destructive. In other teams opposite occurs. The sense of team, culture and leadership influence here. #wenurses

@CNSSinead @J_Critcher @WeNurses #WeNurses I am often unable to delegate to others in my area due to staffing. It’s impossible to delegate when there is only one HCA who is run off her feet and student nurses are working closely with their supervisor. #delegation
