Unique Number: 340610

QUESTION 1
Barbara’s job dissatisfaction after transferring from the neurological ward to the operating
room can be attributed to a significant shift in the nature of her job responsibilities and a
misalignment between her expectations and the reality of her new role. In the neurological
ward, Barbara’s work was dynamic and engaging, allowing her to interact directly with
patients, make decisions, and experience the immediate impact of her care. She was
actively involved in the holistic recovery of her patients and received direct recognition and
feedback for her work, which reinforced her sense of purpose and professional identity.
However, in the operating room, Barbara’s role became highly procedural and limited in
scope. Her tasks were confined to assisting during surgeries, often passively awaiting
instructions from the surgeon. The operating room environment offered minimal patient
interaction, no continuity of care, and lacked the feedback that had previously motivated her.
