Which of the following is NOT part of the Nurse Role in Health Promotion?

• A. Comprehensive assessment
• B. Delegate all tasks to other staff
• C. Review current research
• D. Base care & teaching on theory

Answer: (B)

In health promotion, nurses engage in comprehensive assessment, use current research to guide practice, and base care and teaching on established theory to plan effective, individualized interventions. Delegating all tasks to other staff is not part of this role because nurses remain accountable for patient care and must actively assess needs, provide education, and coordinate care themselves. Delegation is appropriate for certain tasks to qualified staff, but it does not replace the nurse’s responsibility to apply evidence, apply theory to practice, and directly support behavior change.
