MULTIPLE`CHOICE
1. A`nurse`manager`of`a`20-
bed`medical`unit`finds`that`80%`of`the`patients`are`older`adults.`She`is`asked`to`assess`and`ada
pt`the`unit`to`better`meet`the`unique`needs`of`older`adult`patients.`According`to`complexity`pri
nciples,`what`would`be`the`best`approach`to`take`in`making`this`change?
a. Leverage`the`hierarchical`management`position`to`get`unit`staff`involved`in`
assessment`and`planning.
b. Engage`involved`staff`at`all`levels`in`the`decision-making`process.
c. Focus`the`assessment`on`the`unit,`and`omit`the`hospital`and`community`
environment.
d. Hire`a`geriatric`specialist`to`oversee`and`control`the`project.
ANS:` B
Complexity`theory`suggests`that`systems`interact`and`adapt`and`that`decision`making`occurs`t
hroughout`the`systems,`as`opposed`to`being`held`in`a`hierarchy.`In`complexity`theory,`everyb
ody‘s`opinion`counts;`therefore,`all`levels`of`staff`would`be`involved`in`decision`making.

2. A`unit`manager`of`a`25-bed`medical/surgical`area`receives`a`phone`call`from`a`nurse`who`has
called`in`sick`five`times`in`the`past`month.`He`tells`the`manager`that`he`very`much`wants`to`co
me`to`work`when`scheduled,`but`must`often`care`for`his`wife,`who`is`undergoing`treatment`for`
breast`cancer.`In`the`practice`of`a`strengths-
based`nursing`leader,`what`would`be`the`best`approach`to`satisfying`the`needs`of`this`nurse,`ot
her`staff,`and`patients?
a. Line`up`agency`nurses`who`can`be`called`in`to`work`on`short`notice.
b. Place`the`nurse`on`unpaid`leave`for`the`remainder`of`his`wife‘s`treatment.
c. Sympathize`with`the`nurse‘s`dilemma`and`let`the`charge`nurse`know`that`this`nurse`
may`be`calling`in`frequently`in`the`future.
d. Work`with`the`nurse,`staffing`office,`and`other`nurses`to`arrange`his`scheduled`
days`off`around`his`wife‘s`treatments.
ANS:` D
Placing`the`nurse`on`unpaid`leave`may`threaten`physiologic`needs`and`demotivate`the`nurse.`U
nsatisfactory`coverage`of`shifts`on`short`notice`could`affect`patient`care`and`threaten`staff`me
mbers‘`sense`of`competence.`Strengths-
based`nurse`leaders`honour`the`uniqueness`of`individuals,`teams,`systems,`and`organizations;`
therefore`arranging`the`schedule`around`the`wife‘s`needs`would`result`in`a`win-
win`situation,`also`creating`a`work`environment`that`promotes`the`health`of`all`the`nurses`and`
facilitates`their`development.
