MULTIPLE CHOICE zr




1. A nurse manager of a 20-
zr zr zr zr zr


bed medical unit finds that 80% of the patients are older adults. She is asked to assess and ad
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


apt the unit to better meet the unique needs of the older adult patient. Using complexity princ
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


iples, what would be the best approach to take for implementation of this change?
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


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


assessment and planning. zr zr


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


c. Focus the assessment on the unit and omit the hospital and community
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


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




ANS: B zr


Complexity theory suggests that systems interact and adapt and that decision making occurs
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr z


throughout the systems, as opposed to being held in a hierarchy. In complexity theory, every
r zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr z


voice counts, and therefore, all levels of staff would be involved in decision making.

2. A unit manager of a 25-
zr zr zr zr zr


bed medical/surgical area receives a phone call from a nurse who has called in sick five times
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


in the past month. He tells the manager that he very much wants to come to work when sch
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


eduled but must often care for his wife, who is undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Acco
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


rding to Maslow’s need hierarchy theory, what would be the best approach to satisfying the
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


needs of this nurse, other staff, and patients?
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


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


b. Place the nurse on unpaid leave for the remainder of his wife’s treatment.
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


c. Sympathize with the nurse’s dilemma and let the charge nurse know that this nurse zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


may be calling in frequently in the future.
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


d. Work with the nurse, staffing office, and other nurses to arrange his scheduled
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


days off around his wife’s treatments.
zr zr zr zr zr




ANS: D zr


Placing the nurse on unpaid leave may threaten the nurse’s capacity to meet physiologic needs
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


and demotivate the nurse. Unsatisfactory coverage of shifts on short notice could affect patie
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr z r


nt care and threaten the needs of staff to feel competent. Arranging the schedule around the w
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


ife’s needs meets the needs of the staff and of patients while satisfying the nurse’s need for af
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


filiation.

3. A grievance brought by a staff nurse against the unit manager requires mediation. At the first
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr z


mediation session, the staff nurse repeatedly calls the unit manager’s actions unfair, and the
r zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


unit manager continues to reiterate the reasons for the actions. What would be the best course
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


of action at this time?
zr zr zr zr


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


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

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


d. Continue to listen as the parties repeat their thoughts and feelings about the
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


conflict.
ANS: C zr


For resolution of conflict, one should address the interests and involvement of participants in t
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


he conflict by examining the real issues of all parties.

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


resolution. What is the appropriate next step? zr zr zr zr zr zr


a. Arrange another meeting in a week’s time so as to allow a cooling-off period.
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


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


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


d. Back the unit manager’s actions and end the dispute.
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr




ANS: B zr


Part of leadership is understanding conflict resolution and ability to negotiate and manage for r
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


esolution of issues and concerns. This situation has failed a second negotiation session, elevat
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


ion to a manager with additional training to facilitate conflict resolution is important at this p

oint.

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


assistants or unlicensed persons to feed, bathe, and ambulate patients. The RNs on the staff
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


have always practiced in a primary nursing delivery system and are very resistant to this i
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


dea. What would be the best initial strategy for implementation of this change?
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


a. Exploring the values and feelings of the RN group in relationship to this change
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


b. Leaving the RNs alone for a time so they can think about the change before it is
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr z


implementedr


c. Dropping the idea and trying for the change in a year or so when some of the
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr z


present RNs have retired
r zr zr zr


d. Hiring the assistants and allowing the RNs to see what good additions they are
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr




ANS: A zr


Influencing others requires emotional intelligence in domains such as empathy, handling relat
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


ionships, deepening self- zr zr


awareness in self and others, motivating others, and managing emotions. Motivating others re
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


cognizes that values are powerful forces that influence acceptance of change. Leaving the RN
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


s alone for a period of time before implementation does not provide opportunity to explore dif
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


ferent perspectives and values. Avoiding discussion until the team changes may not promote
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


adoption of the change until there is opportunity to explore perspectives and values related to
zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr z


the change. Hiring of the assistants demonstrates lack of empathy for the perspectives of the
r zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr zr


RN staff. zr
