2. A Unit Manager Of A 25-Bed Medical/Surgical Area Receives A Phone Call From A Nurse Who
Has Called In Sick Five Times In The Past Month. He Tells The Manager That He Very Much Wants To

Breast Cancer. According Toumasslown’s Tneed Hioerarchy Theory, What Would Be The Best
Approach To Satisfying The Needs Of This Nurse, Other Staff, And Patients?

C. Sympathize With The Nurse’s Dilemma And Let The Charge Nurse Know That This Nurse May Be
Calling In Frequently In The Future.

Placing The Nurse On Unpaid Leave May Threaten The Nurse’s Capacity To Meet Physiologic Needs And
Demotivate The Nurse. Unsatisfactory Coverage Of Shifts On Short Notice Could Affect Patient Care And

Meets The Needs Of The Staff And Of Patients While Satisfying The Nurse’s Need For Affiliation.
