Learning Goal C: Leadership, Delegation, and Collaboration
Here is what I know:
Leadership in practical nursing involves collaborating with healthcare team, coordinating care, and delegating tasks appropriately while maintaining accountability. The BCCNM (2026) practice standard for working with health care assistants emphasizes the importance of clear communication, role clarity, and supervision to ensure safe and effective care delivery. I understand that effective leadership supports teamwork and promotes positive client outcomes.
Here is what I need to learn more about:
I would like to improve my confidence in delegating tasks, managing conflict, and supporting team members in a respectful and professional manner. Strengthening these skills will help me contribute to a collaborative work environment and ensure safe client care.
How I will gain knowledge and skill development:
Regularly reviewing BCCNM delegation and collaboration guidelines (BCCNM, 2026).
Observing leadership behaviours during clinical placements and future practice.
Practicing communication and teamwork skills during clinical placements.
Seeking feedback and advise from my instructors and peers.
Continues reflection on my leadership experiences.
Importance of this: Developing leadership competencies will help me coordinate care effectively, support team functioning, and ensure that clients receive safe and consistent care (BCCNM, 2026).
