A, B, E
Assessment is a professional responsibility and assists the nurse to identify problems and prioritize care. Parts of the assessment may be delegated depending on state boards of nursing and agency policies. Assessment helps the nurse formulate a nursing diagnosis; a medical diagnosis is not within the nurse's scope of practice. All patients are assessed for pain.
