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 |adapt |the |unit |to |better |meet | the |unique |needs |of |older |adult | patients.
According |to |complexity |principles, |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
throughout |the |systems, |as |opposed |to |being |held | in |a |hierarchy. |In |complexity |theory,
everybody‘s |opinion |counts; |therefore, |all |levels |of |staff |would |be |involved |in |decision
making.

2. | A |unit | manager |of |a |25-bed |medical/surgical
called |in |sick |five |times |in |the |past |month. |He |tells |the |manager |that |he |very |much |wants |to
come |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, |other |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.
Unsatisfactory |coverage |of |shifts |on |short | notice |could |affect |patient |care |and |threaten |staff
members‘ |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.
