Terms in this set (26)The registered nurse is teaching a nursing student the qualities of a leader for effectively managing conflicts. Which statement by the nursing student indicates the need for further teaching? A."I will provide a forum for open discussion." B."I will ask the staff or clients to learn from the situation." C."I will immediately resume efforts to resolve the conflict if initial efforts fail." D."I will motivate followers to use skills and resources for dispute resolution." C."I will immediately resume efforts to resolve the conflict if initial efforts fail." The effective approach toward managing conflicts as a leader is to provide a "cooling off" period before reconvening if the resolution fails. If the nurse reconvenes the parties immediately after initially failing to find a resolution, it may not help the nurse manage the conflict properly. Providing a forum for discussion will help in eliciting feedback before and after negotiations. Working with staff or clients after the conflict to learn from the situation may help prevent a similar kind of conflict in the future. Motivating others to implement skills and resources for dispute resolution is an effective way to manage conflicts. Case management is being implemented in a major city hospital. What should the manager include when instructing the nursing staff about this care delivery method? Select all that apply. A."The case manager advocates for the client and family." B."The case manager identifies outcomes and coordinates care activities." C."Case managers help control the costs for high-risk, high-cost client populations." D."Identifying tasks that can be performed by other care providers is just one activity." E."Case management includes the client, family, and all healthcare provider involvement." A, D, E Educating the staff of other departments about the case manager's role and responsibilities will increase the effectiveness of the case-management process. This education should include explain how the case manager serves as an advocate for the client and the family. The case-management model of care delivery streamlines costs for high-risk, high-cost client populations and seeks the active involvement of the client, the family, and healthcare professionals. Identifying outcomes and coordinating care activities and identifying tasks that can be performed by other care providers are functions of the nurse manager in client-focused care. During an interview for a nurse manager position, the panel asks the nurse about the primary role of a leader. Which answer provided by the nurse would be most appropriate? A."To inspire followers" B."To provide training to the followers" C."To share views about the task with the followers" D."To increase the feeling of self-worth in the followers" A. "To inspire followers" What principal components are associated with a nurse's time management skill? Select all that apply. A. Autonomy B.Goal setting Goal setting, priority setting, and interruption control forms the principal components of time management. Autonomy is an important component in the decision-making process. Right communication is considered one of the rights of delegation. A registered nurse (RN) in charge of a mental health unit has two additional staff members: a licensed practical nurse (LPN) and a nursing assistant (NA). The unit has 20 clients, with one client on constant observation for acute suicidality. What should the nurse in charge do when making the daily assignments? A.Administer medications and assign the LPN to maintain observation of the suicidal client and the NA to provide client care. B.Maintain constant observation of the suicidal client and assign the LPN to administer medications and the NA to provide client care. C.Perform client care and administrative duties and assign the NA to administer medications and the LPN to maintain observation of the suicidal client. D.Provide client care and administrative duties and assign the LPN to administer medications and the NA to maintain constant observation of the suicidal client. D.Provide client care and administrative duties and assign the LPN to administer medications and the NA to maintain constant observation of the suicidal client. Assigning the LPN to administer medications utilizes the LPN's skills; providing constant observation of a client is within the role of NAs and frees the RN to perform client care and administrative duties. Administering medications will keep the RN from performing administrative duties; having the LPN perform direct client observation will underutilize the abilities of the LPN. Providing suicide observation will prevent the RN from performing required administrative duties. Having an NA administer medications is illegal in many states. NAs are not educated about the actions and side effects of medications. The unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) assigned to the 7:00 AM shift has not been coming to work until 8:00 AM. Nursing care is delayed, and assignments are started late. What is the most effective action by the charge nurse/team leader? A.Discuss the issue with a friend from another unit. B.Remind the UAP of the expected start time. C.Report the problem to the Human Resources department. D.Document the information and discuss it with the UAP. D. Document the information and discuss it with the UAP. Documentation is the best initial response; documentation should include both the missed time and the effect on client care. Discussing the issue with a friend from another unit is not a professional response to the problem. Reminding the unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) of the expected start time may be helpful, but will not effectively address the issue if the problem continues. Reporting the event to the Human Resources department may be a later response to the problem. While supervising the LPN's technique with medication administration, the nurse manager sees the LPN beginning to dispense an incorrect dose. How should the nurse manager respond initially? A. By telling the LPN that an error has been made B.By informing the nursing supervisor that the LPN is unsafe C.By questioning the dosage in the hope that the LPN will identify the error D.By pointing out the error just before the LPN begins to administer the medication C.By questioning the dosage in the hope that the LPN will identify the error Because the nurse is supervising, not evaluating, the LPN, questioning the dosage rather than pointing out the error is a positive approach that will allow the LPN to grow and help foster a supportive working relationship. Telling the LPN that an error has been made is not the initial intervention; this may become necessary if the LPN does not identify the error without being told. Informing the nursing supervisor is inappropriate and premature. Waiting until just before administration of the incorrect dose puts the client at risk. The nurse leader, while teaching a group of nurse leaders, references an approach of evidence-driven consciousness to be applied in the nursing practice. What is the main concern of the nurse leader? 1 B.About the safety of the clients The phrase "evidence-driven approach" mainly shows a concern about the safety of clients. The management of emotions could be associated with emotional intelligence. The concern about the focus on emergence may be executed through the use of phrases such as "think outside the box." The focus on efficiency and cost may not be signified though the phrase "evidence-driven approach." A nurse encourages employees to implement a Magnet Recognition Program in the organization. The nurses think beyond their own personal needs and are clear about the group outcomes. Which leadership quality according to Gardner's tasks is reflected in the activity of the nurse? 1 C.Representing the group According to Gardner's Tasks of Leadership, encouraging employees to implement a Magnet Recognition Program shows that the nurse is representing the group. Trust develops when leaders are clear when providing direction and refrain from misdirecting others in their thinking and actions. The leader may serve as a symbol by becoming involved in public relations events, for example. The nurse as leader can achieve workable unity between and among parties by avoiding, diminishing, or resolving conflicts. What are the elements integrated into delegacy? Select all that apply. A. Stability A. Stability D. Critical Thinking The four elements that foster effective delegation decisions are safety, critical thinking, stability, and time.

What is the duty of the nurse as delegator if the delegatee has limited knowledge and ability to perform a task? A.Provide guidance. B.Observe and motivate. C.Explain what is to be done. D.Establish mutual expectations. A.Provide guidance. If the delegatee has limited knowledge and ability to perform a task, the delegator should provide guidance. The delegator is expected to observe and monitor the task performed by the delegatee to ensure he or she has the ability and willingness to establish a relationship and accomplish work. The RN explains the task and how to execute it if the situation involves a new task and the relationship is ongoing. If the delegatee is new to the workplace, but has the ability and willingness to perform a task, the delegator should establish mutual expectations and conditions of performance in order to establish a good relationship. Which delegatee requires little guidance from the delegator? A.Delegatee who is familiar with the task but not the client B.Delegatee who has experience but is unfamiliar with the task C.Delegatee who has little experience but has willingness to do the task D.Delegatee who is very familiar with the client but has a lack of ability to do the task A.Delegatee who is familiar with the task but not the client A delegatee who has experience and is familiar with the task requires less guidance and support from the delegator as he or she has the ability to accomplish the task. A delegatee who has work experience may have ability but requires guidance as he or she is new to the delegated task. A delegatee who shows willingness to do the task but has little experience requires supervision. A delegatee who is familiar with the client but has a lack of ability to do the task requires supervision or guidance. Which questions should the nurse consider to assess and ensure delegation to the right person? Select all that apply. 1 1,5 The charge nurse is assigning client care to oncoming staff. The new nurse on the unit expresses an inability to care for the assigned client and is requesting to be reassigned. What should the delegator do in this situation? A.Provide little guidance to the delegatee B.Evaluate the ability and willingness of the delegate. C.Understand the delegatee's motivation in the situation. D.Understand the kind of support needed to accomplish the task. C.Understand the delegatee's motivation in the situation. An inability to care for the assigned client shows inability and/or unwillingness in the new nurse. The delegator needs to understand the delegatee's motivation related to the situation and should use selling leadership style, which leads to a supportive relationship. Little guidance should be provided to the delegatee when he or she has high ability and willingness to perform the task delegated efficiently. When a new team begins to work together, the delegator should evaluate the ability and willingness of the delegatee. In the application of practice before delegation, the delegator needs to understand the kind of support to be given to accomplish the task. The nurse leader finds that a client with a severe vitamin B12 deficiency is extremely fatigued and tends to fall. Which theory does the student nurse think that the nurse leader would find appropriate for prioritizing the need of the client? A.Role theory B.Maslow's theory C.Complexity theory D.Situational leadership theory B. Maslow's theory Maslow's theory prioritizes the needs of the client and, if applying Maslow's theory, the nurse leader would provide for safety needs of the client first. Role theory is associated with an appreciable framework for the development and evaluation of staff. Complexity theory explains that change is an ongoing experience through which a system is adjusted. Situational leadership theory analyzes an individual's knowledge and the work-related task before delegation. What are the responsibilities of the nurse as a leader? Select all that apply. A.Being accountable for financial matters B.Encouraging the direct care nurses to provide input into decisions C.Identifying charge nurses who have a potential to become managers D.Being responsible for the selection, hiring, and orientation of employees E.Ensuring that day-to-day activities of the staff are correctly planned and executed B,E The registered nurse (RN) assigns a task to a licensed practical nurse (LPN) to take care of a client admitted with severe burns.

A.Performing hygiene tasks B.Monitoring the heart rate C.Evaluating the medical reports D.Monitoring the blood pressure E.Administering the oral medication B,D,E The licensed practical nurse monitors the heart rate, monitors blood pressure, and administers oral medications. Hygienic tasks are performed by the unlicensed assistive personnel. Evaluating medical reports is performed by the RN, not by the LPN. Which healthcare settings are appropriate for delegating care according to the functional model of nursing? Select all that apply. A.Hospice units B.Emergency units C.Inpatient facilities D.Ambulatory clinics E.Acute care agencies B,D In the functional method, each healthcare provider knows the expectation of his or her assigned role and completes tasks quickly and effectively. This model works well in emergency situations and ambulatory clinics. Hospice settings are not suitable for this type of care, because in hospice care the client requires chronic and continuous care. Inpatient care settings are not suitable for the use of the functional model of care delivery because these settings need acute care and continuous care by careful monitoring. Acute care agencies are not suitable for the functional model because acute and more specific individualized care is required. Who would the registered nurse state is accountable for establishing systems to communicate competency requirements related to delegation? A.Registered nurse (RN) B.Chief nursing officer (CNO) C.Licensed practical nurse (LPN) D.Unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) B.Chief nursing officer (CNO) CNOs are accountable for establishing systems to communicate competency related to delegation.
