Feedback:
Team nursing is composed of an RN team leader, other RNs, LPN/LVNs, and nursing assistants who provide care to a group of clients. Functional nursing is a task-oriented method where everyone in the group is assigned to specific tasks. Case method is the same as private duty nursing. Total care refers to assignments in which a nurse assumes all the care for a small group of clients.
