Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nurse's major responsibilities lie with encouraging the patient to learn and use necessary skills, assisting the patient to stay on task. The nurse is not an ever-present taskmaster or disciplinarian. The nurse does not teach work-related skills; vocational staff members assume those types of tasks.
