SENTINEL U METRIX: PATIENT
MANAGEMENT AND DELEGATION® V.2 —
PRACTICE QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED
ANSWERS AND COMPLETE RATIONALES
## SECTION 1: SIMULATION OVERVIEW & CHARGE NURSE
ROLE
**1. In the Patient Management & Delegation v2 simulation,
what role do you assume?**
A. Staff nurse
B. Charge nurse
C. Nursing assistant (CNA)
D. Nurse manager
**Correct answer:** B
**Rationale:** The simulation places the learner in the role of a
**charge nurse** responsible for patient assignments,
delegation, and unit management over a 3-day period. This role
requires leadership skills, prioritization abilities, and knowledge
of scope of practice for various team members .

**2. How many patient scenarios are included in the simulation
across all levels?**
A. 25
B. 52
C. 75
D. 100
**Correct answer:** B
**Rationale:** The simulation features **52 diverse patient
scenarios** across 3 levels of increasing difficulty. This variety
allows learners to practice clinical judgment with patients
presenting different conditions, acuities, and care needs .
**3. Over how many simulated days does the patient
management exercise take place?**
A. 1 day
B. 2 days
C. 3 days
D. 7 days
**Correct answer:** C
, 3 | Page
**Rationale:** The simulation runs over a **3-day period**, with
patient load and complexity increasing each day to simulate the
real-world pressures of a busy hospital unit .
**4. What happens on Day 3 compared to Day 1 in the
simulation?**
A. Fewer patients
B. More staff available
C. Increased patient load and complexity
D. No changes
**Correct answer:** C
**Rationale:** Patient load and complexity **increase each
day**, with Day 3 presenting the highest acuity and most
challenging scenarios to test the learner's clinical judgment and
delegation skills .
**5. What is the primary purpose of the Application Phase in the
simulation?**
A. To review basic nursing skills
B. To assume the role of a nursing leader over a 3-day period
C. To complete medication administration training
