Students are to conduct a critical analysis of the case referencing key pieces of information/examples specifically from the case, and using contemporary literature to support the analysis. This focused analysis should specifically relate to the Registered Nurse’s role in delegation of care, communication and documentation of care within their scope of practice whilst caring for Melisa Stokes.

The analysis should commence with a discussion around the key safety concepts that this case highlights and that the analysis will address. With a focus on the responsibility, accountability and competency requirements of the Registered Nurse.
Students should use examples from the case to highlight missed opportunities from the perspective of a Registered Nurse in their provision of post-operative care, delegation of care, clinical competence, communication and accountability for care.
The analysis should include a discussion of the types of ongoing assessments and documentation considered important for provision of safe postoperative nursing care.
The analysis of this case should use pertinent literature regarding concepts of human factors, teamwork and effective communication (both written and verbal) and the implications of these on effective decision-making, communication and documentation of patient’s ongoing condition and care.
Students must provide a synopsis of suitable strategies that could be implemented at the ward or unit level, to risk mitigate missed opportunities found in the case that relate to and demonstrate knowledge of the Registered Nurse’s responsibility and accountability of overseeing the practice of unlicensed nursing staff.
