infection."
Coaching and discipline have failed and the nurse manager is faced with no alternative but to
terminate an employee. Which aspect of this situation requires the most careful planning? - ANSWER:

accurate documentation to support the termination.

with performance, but no coaching is described.

2. Anticipate that the assistant will give an explanation for the lateness.
A newly hired certified nurse's aide (CNA) has been 15 minutes late returning from mealtime 4 days
this week. The nurse manager coaches the employee and finds the CNA thought meal breaks were 45
minutes. What is the most appropriate response from the nurse manager? - ANSWER: Show the CNA
the break hours in the employee handbook. The first step is to determine whether the employee is
aware of the policy.
A manager has been informed by a reliable registered nurse that an assistant lied about bathing a
client. The manager calls the assistant into the office with a written warning. Why is this action
inappropriate? - ANSWER: The assistant should be allowed to discuss the matter. The manager should
investigate the matter and listen to the assistant's reasons for the registered nurse's complaint.
The nurse manager is concerned about the apparent lack of staff motivation to improve client care on
a unit. How should this manager use motivational theories to help improve this situation? - ANSWER:
Combine theories to develop a plan for this specific unit.

client outcomes. Which employee factors should the manager assess first? - ANSWER: Motivation and

A registered nurse is dissatisfied with the wages and health benefits available in his current position
and decides to seek other employment. This employee's frustration is most linked to which
motivational theory? - ANSWER: Content theory: explain why a person behaves in a particular
manner, emphasizing the individual's needs or the rewards that satisfy those needs—in this case,
wages and health benefits.
In an attempt to decrease tardiness, a hospital gives employees an extra hour's pay for each wage
period that the employee has not been late for work. This incentive program is an example of which
theory? - ANSWER: Expectancy theory emphasizes the role of rewards to the employee in order to
increase a desired behavior.
The hospital has initiated a new fall risk assessment tool. The nurse manager would like to reward
those staff members who use the tool regularly. Which method of reinforcement would be most
successful in getting long-term compliance? - ANSWER: A coupon for a free lunch for staff members
who, according to a medical record review of nursing documentation, consistently use the tool
correctly.

department. What benefit is this program to the staff nurse? - ANSWER: Horizontal promotion is a
reward for clinical excellence

Which options are rewards that the manager could influence? - ANSWER: 1. Job satisfaction.

goal-setting theory, which statement by the manager would be the most effective in enhancing the
nurse's assessment skills? - ANSWER: "Plan to study one body system a week and demonstrate your
assessment skills to me every week."

hemodynamics during orientation to the unit. The nurse has also participated in research into
hemodynamic monitoring of ICU clients. Which clinical ladder designation does this nurse best
exemplify? - ANSWER: Clinical expert-The clinical expert combines teaching and research with
practice.
A nurse manager has planned orientation activities for a new registered nurse. The new nurse is
required to observe shift report and UAP delegation, take shift report and delegate UAP assignments
for a week. What is the rationale for making this orientation assignment? - ANSWER: The manager
should focus on those skills specific to the new nurse's role.

assigned me a mentor." What is erroneous about this statement? - ANSWER: Preceptors are assigned;
mentors choose protégés

member as a coach for this nurse. What is the most important aspect of the coach's job? - ANSWER:
