Can a Division 2 nurse (endorsed) supervise the work of another worker who is administering medication?
Yes, the RN1, 3 or 4 who is managing the administration of medication to residents could delegate the routine supervision of other workers to an endorsed Division 2 nurse, within the medication management plan that they have determined. A non-endorsed Division 2 nurse could not be delegated this supervision as they do not have training in medication administration.
