MULTIPLE CHOICE fy




1. A nurse manager of a 20-bed medical unit finds that 80% of the patients are older
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


adults. She is asked to assess and adapt the unit to better meet the unique needs of
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


the older adult patient. Using complexity principles, what would be the best
fy f y fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


approach to take for implementation of this change?
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


a. Leverage the hierarchical management position to get unit staff involved
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


in assessment and planning.
fy fy fy fy


b. Engage involved staff at all levels in the decision-making process.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


c. Focus the assessment on the unit and omit the hospital and community environment.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


d. Hire a geriatric specialist to oversee and control the project.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy




ANS: B fy


Complexity theory suggests that systems interact and adapt and that decision
fy fy f y f y f y f y f y f y f y f y


making occurs throughout the systems, as opposed to being held in a hierarchy. In
f y fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


complexity theory, every voice counts, and therefore, all levels of staff would be
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


involved in decision making.

2. A unit manager of a 25-bed medical/surgical area receives a phone
f y f y f y f y f y f y f y f y f y f y


f y call from a nurse who has called in sick five times in the past month. He
f y f y fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


fy tells the manager that he very much wants to
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy




come to work when scheduled but must often care for his wife, who is undergoing
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


treatment
fy




for breast cancer. According to Maslow‘s need hierarchy theory, what would be the best
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy




NURSINGTB.COMapproach to satisfying the f
y fy fy fy fy needs of this nurse, other staff, and
fy fy fy fy fy fy




patients?

a. Line up agency nurses who can be called in to work on short notice.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


b. Place the nurse on unpaid leave for the remainder of his wife‘s treatment.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


c. Sympathize with the nurse‘s dilemma and let the charge nurse know fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


fy that this nurse may be calling in frequently in the future.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


d. Work with the nurse, staffing office, and other nurses to arrange
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


fy his scheduled days off around his wife‘s treatments.

ANS: D fy


Placing the nurse on unpaid leave may threaten the nurse‘s capacity to meet
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


physiologic needs and demotivate the nurse. Unsatisfactory coverage of shifts on
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


short notice could affect patient care and threaten the needs of staff to feel competent.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


Arranging the schedule around the wife‘s needs meets the needs of the staff and of
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


patients while satisfying the nurse‘s need for affiliation.

mediation. At the first mediation session, the staff nurse repeatedly calls the
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


unit manager‘s actions unfair, and the unit manager continues to reiterate the
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


reasons for the actions. What would be the best course of action at this time?
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


a. Send the two disputants away to reach their own resolution.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


b. Involve another staff nurse in the discussion for clarity issues.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


c. Ask each party to examine their own motives and issues in the conflict.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy

about the conflict. fy fy fy

fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


participants in the conflict by examining the real issues of all parties.

4. At a second negotiation session, the unit manager and staff nurse are unable
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


to reach a resolution. What is the appropriate next step?
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


a. Arrange another meeting in a week‘s time so as to allow a cooling-off
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


period. fy


b. Elevate the next negation session to the next manager, one level above.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


c. Insist that participants continue to talk until a resolution has been reached.
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy

fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy

fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


manage for resolution of issues and concerns. This situation has failed a second
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


negotiation session, elevation to a manager with additional training to facilitate
fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy fy


conflict resolution is important at this point.

5. The manager of a surgical area has a vision for the future that requires the

addition of RN assistants or unlicensed persons to feed, bathe, and

ambulate patients. The RNs on the staff
