In considering the effectiveness of delegation, the nurse addresses whether the delegation was successful: was the task performed correctly, was the desired outcome achieved, what went well, and were there any problems or concerns. The availability of resources is not included in this evaluation process as the nurse is directly evaluating the delegation process to the NAP and the care the patient received.
