MULTIPLE CHOICE g




1. A nurse manager of a 20-bed medical unit finds that 80% of the patients are older adults. She
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


is asked to assess and adapt the unit to better meet the unique needs of older adult patients.
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


According to complexity principles, what would be the best approach to take in making this
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


change?
g


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


assessment and planning.
g g g


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


c. Focus the assessment on the unit, and omit the hospital and community
g g g g g g g g g g g


environment.
g


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




ANS: B g


Complexity theory suggests that systems interact and adapt and that decision making occurs
g g g g g g g g g g g g


throughout the systems, as opposed to being held in a hierarchy. In complexity theory,
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


everybody‘s opinion counts; therefore, all levels of staff would be involved in decision
g g g g g g g g g g g g g


making.

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

g
g


g g g g g g g g g


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


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


for breast cancer. In the practice of a strengths-based nursing leader, what would be the best
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


approach to satisfying the needs of this nurse, other staff, and patients?
g g g g g g g g g g g g


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


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


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


may be calling in frequently in the future.
g g g g g g g g


d. Work with the nurse, staffing office, and other nurses to arrange his scheduled
g g g g g g g g g g g g


days off around his wife‘s treatments.
g g g g g g




ANS: D g


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


Unsatisfactory coverage of shifts on short notice could affect patient care and threaten staff
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


members‘ sense of competence. Strengths-based nurse leaders honour the uniqueness of
g g g g g g g g g g g


individuals, teams, systems, and organizations; therefore arranging the schedule around the
g g g g g g g g g g g


wife‘s needs would result in a win-win situation, also creating a work environment that
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g


promotes the health of all the nurses and facilitates their development.
