German term or phrase: Heilkundeübertragungsrichtlinie

This seems to be a relatively new guideline. All I have in the way of context is the title of an academic workshop in the field of nursing:

"Haftungsrechtliche Situation im modernen Wundmanagement unter Einbeziehung der für das Wundmanagement relevanten Aspekte der Heilkundeübertragungsrichtlinie."

Many thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Directive on the devolution of medical tasks and duties

Explanation:
I would tip that you keep the German term with an explanation in brackets or as a footnote. Two possible renderings that come to my mind, based on my reading of the reference I've posted separately:

Directive on the devolution of medical tasks and duties to qualified members of the nursing profession
or
Directive on the devolution of medical tasks and duties to (qualified) nursing care and geriatric care professionals

43 mins confidence:

health delivery guideline

Explanation:
The word is referring in general terms to the formal title of the relevant guidelines, and is not the name of a guideline.

For that reason I would be tempted to use it in the plural, "health delivery guidelines".

Guidelines for the application of therapeutics

Explanation:
Heilkunde = therapeutics
Übertragung = Application
Richtlinien = Guidelines

Ich verstehe Heilkundeübertragungsrichtlinie als Anweisungen für die Anwendung von Heilmaßnahmen.

Pflegekräfte sollen künftig Aufgaben übernehmen dürfen, die bislang nur Ärzten vorbehalten waren. Das sieht die Heilkundeübertragungsrichtlinie vor, die der Gemeinsame Bundesausschuss (GBA) vor Kurzem beschlossen hat.In seiner Richtlinie regelt der GBA, auf welche Art und Weise die bisher ärztlichen Aufgaben zunächst in Modellvorhaben der Krankenkassen auf qualifizierte Angehörige der Kranken- und Altenpflegeberufe zu übertragen sind.
