    You are helping - they clearly need the additional training, and you’re doing everything you can to supply that. Their job can’t be relying on you.

    They shouldn’t (and almost certainly don’t) have delegation authority.

    For corporate bingo, the keywords are upskill, cross-training, and bus factor.
