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?

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.

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.

U S N T Area. O Receives A Phone Call From A Nurse Who
2. A Unit Manager Of A 25-Bed Medical/Surgical
Has
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.
ANSWER: 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.
