334 1 | P a g e Chapter 1, Decision Making, Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, and Clinical Reasoning: Requisites for Successful Leadership and Management 1. A nurse is applying a decision -making process to a clinical challenge. When applying this process, the nurse must: a. analyze the root causes of a situation. b. begin by solving the underlying problem. c. choose between different courses of action. d. prioritize the maximum good for the maximum number of people. ANS: C Feedback: Decision making is a complex, cognitive process often defined as choosing a particular course of action. Problem solving is part of decision making and is a systematic process that focuses on analyzing a difficult situation. It is not always realistic for the nurse to solve each of the problems contributing to a larger challenge, especially at the beginning of the decision -making process. The nurse often lacks the time, information, or resources to analyze the root causes of a situation. Many times, the nurse makes a decision that benefits the largest number of people, but this is not always feasible or desirable.

A nurse is applying the traditional problem -solving model when mediating a conflict between two colleagues. When applying this model, the nurse should prioritize what task? a. Identifying the root cause of the conflict b. Implementing a solution as quickly as possible c. Eliciting input from other nurses d. Encouraging each nurse to reflect on their actions ANS: A Feedback: The traditional problem -solving model attempts to identify the root problem in situations, a task that requires much time and energy. Efficiency is desirable, but trying to implement a solution as quickly as possible can result in a hasty and incorrect solution. Outside input may or may not be necessary; this varies with each individual problem. Reflective thinking is always beneficial, but this is not a specific component of the traditional problem -solving model.

Which statement is true regarding decision making? a. Scientific methods provide identical decisions by different individuals for the same problems. b. Decisions are greatly influenced by each person’s value system. c. Personal beliefs can be adjusted for when the scientific approach to problem solving is used. d. Past experience has little to do with the quality of the decision. ANS: B Feedback: Values, life experience, individual preference, and individual ways of thinking will influence a person’s decision making. No matter how objective the criteria will be, value judgments will always play a part in a person’s decision making, either consciously or subconsciously. It is not possible for a nurse to fully “set aside” personal beliefs when making a decision, even if the nurse applies the principles of self -reflection. PTS: 1 DIF: Moderate REF: Page and Header: 16, Choose and Act Decisively OBJ: 3 NAT: Client Needs: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care LOC: Nursing Concepts: Leadership & Management TOP: Chapter: 1 KEY: Integrated Process: Nursing Process BLM: Cognitive Level: Understand NOT: Multiple Choice 4. The nurse -manager of a short -staffed unit needs to make a decision about a nurse’s request for an unpaid leave of absence. In order to increase the chance of making a good decision, the manager should: a. involve as many people in the decision -making process as possible. b. begin the decision -making process by presuming the status quo to be the best option. c. generate as many different alternatives as possible. d. prioritize the option that is most innovative. ANS: C Feedback: The greater the number of alternatives that can be generated by the decision maker, the better the final decision will be. Generating multiple alternatives may require involving more people in the decision -making process, but the process can easily become unwieldy if too many people are involved. The manager should always consider the status quo as a possible option, but this is not always considered to be the default option. Innovation is often a desirable characteristic, but it would be inappropriate to choose an option solely because it is innovative; many other values must be considered.

An experienced nurse -manager has been described as being a “right -brained thinker.” Which is an example of this manager’s decision -making process?
