4723-4-03(K), OAC, requires the RN directing the LPN’s
practice to assess specific elements of the clinical situation
prior to giving the direction. The RN is required to first
assess: (1) the condition of the patient who needs nursing
care, including, but not limited to, the stability of the
patient; (2) the type of nursing care the patient requires;
(3) the complexity and frequency of the nursing care
needed; (4) the training, skills, and
ability of the LPN to perform the
specific function or procedure; and (5)
the availability and accessibility of
resources necessary to safely perform the
specific function or procedure.
Therefore, when the RN is

needs and determining whether a LPN
may perform a specific procedure, the
RN must consider all of the above
factors. For example, if the patient is
not stable and has a new surgically
created tracheostomy, the RN may
determine that a RN, not a LPN, should
provide the nursing care to the patient.
If the patient is stable and the patient
had a tracheostomy several years ago,
and the LPN has not obtained
education specific to care the patient
requires, the RN would not direct the
LPN to provide the patient’s
tracheostomy care until the LPN
completed the required education and
