• Right person: The UAP is competent to perform the delegated task or activity.
• Right communication: The nurse provides a clear and concise explanation of the task or activity, including limits
and expectations.

1. Autonomy – self management (person suffers an accident and doesn’t want extra measures)
2. Beneficence – doing good for the patient (nurse & patient decide on post op care together)
3. Nonmaleficence – avoiding things that may cause harm
4. Fidelity – keeping the nurses promise to give care
5. Veracity – telling the truth (telling the truth when one makes an error)
6. Justice – ensuring the equal and fair treatment of all patients (If someone lies about an error)
