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

adapt the unit to better meet the unique needs of older adult patients. According to compl

exity principles, what would be the best approach to take in making this change?
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


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

n assessment and planning.
pb pb pb


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


c. Focus the assessment on the unit, and omit the hospital and communi

ty environment. pb


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

2. A unit manager of a 25-bed medical/surgical area receives a phone call from a nurse who has
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


called in sick five times in the past month. He tells the manager that he very much wants
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


to come to work when scheduled, but must often care for his wife, who is undergoing treat
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


ment for breast cancer. In the practice of a strengths-
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


based nursing leader, what would be the best approach to satisfying the needs of this nurs
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


e, other staff, and patients?
pb pb pb pb


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


b. Place the nurse on unpaid leave for the remainder of his wife‘s treatment.
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


c. Sympathize with the nurse‘s dilemma and let the charge nurse know that this nur
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


se may be calling in frequently in the future.
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


d. Work with the nurse, staffing office, and other nurses to arrange his schedul
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


ed days off around his wife‘s treatments.
pb pb pb pb pb pb




ANS: D pb


Placing the nurse on unpaid leave may threaten physiologic needs and demotivate the nurse
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


. Unsatisfactory coverage of shifts on short notice could affect patient care and threaten st

aff members‘ sense of competence. Strengths-
pb pb pb pb pb


based nurse leaders honour the uniqueness of individuals, teams, systems, and organizatio

ns; therefore arranging the schedule around the wife‘s needs would result in a win-
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


win situation, also creating a work environment that promotes the health of all the nurses
pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb pb


and facilitates their development.
