Formal Authority Structure - The authority, which originates from the placement of a person in
the organisation is called formal authority. Since authority originates from the position of
persons in the organisation structure, it is also termed as positional authority. It is the official
power, which comes from the positions in the office organisation.

As a head nurse of the medical surgical unit, THE type of planning should I consider for myself
and the staff members are:

 Identify tasks for delegation based on client needs

 Ensure appropriate education, skills, and experience of personnel performing delegated
tasks
 Assign and supervise care provided by others (e.g., LPN/VN, assistive personnel, other
RNs)
 Communicate tasks to be completed and report client concerns immediately
 Organize the workload to manage time effectively
 Utilize the five rights of delegation (e.g., right task, right circumstances, right person,
right direction or communication, right supervision or feedback)
 Evaluate delegated tasks to ensure correct completion of activity
 Evaluate the ability of staff members to perform assigned tasks for the position (e.g., job
description, scope of practice, training, experience)
 Evaluate the effectiveness of staff members' time management skills
