The correct answer involves a task that is within the scope of practice for the AP. Assisting with personal hygiene tasks, such as bathing and oral care, aligns with the role of APs, who are responsible for basic care and activities of daily living. Focused assessments, medication administration, and client education require specialized knowledge and skills that belong to licensed staff such as RNs or LPNs. This ensures the delegation of tasks promotes client safety and adheres to legal guidelines.
