"B" tasks are important but not as critical as "A" tasks. They can be scheduled for later but should not be put off for too long. Reviewing the dress code policy (B), completing patient teaching prior to discharge (D), and reviewing the procedure for inserting a PIC line (E) are important tasks that need to be done soon but do not require immediate action like an "A" task would.
