Can a nurse aide take vital signs?

  1. No

  2. Only under supervision

  3. Yes

  4. Only in emergency situations

The correct answer is: No

In Wisconsin, nurse aides are not allowed to take vital signs. Vital signs are considered a skilled nursing task that requires training and licensure beyond what a nurse aide possesses. Therefore, it is essential for nurse aides to understand their scope of practice and only perform tasks that they are authorized to do.
