Questions With 100%Verified
SolutionsA+GRADED
Which actions of the nurse exhibit transactional leadership? Select all that apply.

1 Motivating or inspiring the employees
2 Meeting the targets within the deadline
3 Working according to organizational rules
4 Correcting the errors in a reactive manner
5 Increasing the employee commitment of an organization - correct answer...✔✔2, 3, 4

The characteristics of transactional leadership include valuing the orders and structures
of an organization. The nurse who exhibits transactional leadership will meet the targets
within the deadline given by the organization. The nurse will also follow the rules of an
organization and will correct the errors of an employee in a reactive manner.

Motivating or inspiring the employees and increasing employee commitment are the
characteristics of transformational leadership.

The unit nurse manager comes to work obviously intoxicated. Which action is the staff
nurse ethically obligated to take?

1 Call the security guard.
2 Tell the nurse manager to go home.
3 Have the supervisor validate the observation.
4 Offer the nurse manager a large cup of coffee - correct answer...✔✔3 Have the
supervisor validate the observation.

The staff nurse should call the hospital supervisor to confirm and handle the problem.
The security guard has no authority in this situation. Although sending the nurse
manager home removes the nurse manager from the clinical setting, this action misses
an opportunity for documenting the situation and the nurse manager is in no condition to
drive safely. Drinking coffee does not make a person less intoxicated.

before delegating a task? Select all that apply.

1 Ability
2 Attitude
3 Personality
4 Confidence
5 Commitment - correct answer...✔✔2, 4, 5

Which performance appraisal method is used by nurse managers to measure the
performance of the nurse both qualitatively and quantitatively?

1 Narrative method
2 Critical incidents method
3 Graphic rating scale form
4 Behaviorally anchored rating scales - correct answer...✔✔4

an overview of nursing standards by determining performance both qualitatively and
quantitatively.

The narrative method requires a manager to write a statement about the nurse's
performance. The critical incidents type is a performance appraisal method in which a
manager keeps a written record of positive and negative performance. The graphic
rating scale form is a performance appraisal checklist on which a manager rates the
nurse's performance on a continuum such as excellent, good, average, and poor.

4 Within 10 minutes - correct answer...✔✔2 Within 1 hour

with major injuries are triaged as an ESI-2 and require treatment within 10 minutes.

,4 "Is the delegator able to monitor and evaluate the client appropriately?" - correct
answer...✔✔1 "Is the delegation appropriate to the situation?"

The question, "Is the delegation appropriate to the situation?" is related to right
circumstance.

Under a leader, a team of followers has failed to achieve success in conducting
research. What does an effective leader do in this situation?

1 Criticizes the team members for failure
2 Provides excuses for the negative outcome
3 Refuses to take the responsibility for failure
4 Accepts failure and gains experience from it - correct answer...✔✔4 Accepts failure
and gains experience from it

An effective leader should accept the failure and gain experience from it to avoid
repetition of the same errors.

The effective leader should counsel and motivate the team members for future success
and should not criticize them. Making excuses for the negative outcome is not the
correct action of the effective leader. The effective leader should take responsibility for
the failure and the growth he or she will gain from it.

Monitoring performance and taking corrective action is a transactional leadership
quality.
