Rationale
As a leader, the nurse should be able to adapt to the rules of the hospital
to perform accordingly. A nurse leader should motivate or encourage the
newly appointed staff to reach the desired goals. A nurse leader should
also be aware of any organization events; this helps in managing the team
effectively. Collaboration with the staff and allowing them to participate in
decision making helps to reduce medical errors and improves job
satisfaction. Penalizing the nurses for poor performance is the duty of the
nurse manager. Incredulity or doubting the staff performance may reduce
job satisfaction instead of motivating nurses to improve their performance.

nighttime to prevent nausea. Sputum specimens are usually needed every 2

consecutive sputum cultures are negative it indicates that the client is no
longer infectious.
