 nstructions: APA format essay  As you transition to an advanced nursing role, regardless of your level  of experience or specific role, you’ve encountered patient care delivery  dilemmas. A dilemma is a predicament or quandary where various factors  and strategies need to be considered to resolve or improve the  situation. The patient care delivery dilemma can be major or minor. The  dilemma may involve an individual patient concern or be more systemic  involving the way in which care is delivered relative to a problem.   Some examples are below; Example 1: A patient with a terminal illness has to decide whether or  not to take a new medication that can possibly extend his life for  several months. The treatment has a chance of causing serious side  effects.  His granddaughter is getting married in three months. Example 2: Your unit is understaffed. You have your usual number of four  nurses this evening, but two nurses are from the float pool staff.  These nurses have limited knowledge about the patient population and are  less familiar with unit routines. As charge nurse how do you make  assignments in order to provide the best care for patients?   Overview of Patient Care Delivery Dilemma  1.
