Waiver Nursing Delegation (WND)

Waiver Nursing Delegation (WND) is a critical service that extends the reach of nursing care to individuals with developmental disabilities through the delegation of certain nursing tasks to qualified non-nursing staff. This model allows for a more efficient and flexible approach to meeting the everyday health care needs of individuals in their living environments. Delegated staff are carefully trained and supervised by nurses to perform specific health-related tasks safely and competently, ensuring that individuals receive timely and effective care. WND is instrumental in promoting continuity of care and enhancing the quality of life for those with developmental disabilities within the comfort of their community or home.
