BSN IV – B
CHAPTER 1
Answer:
When making decisions, each person has their own ideas and beliefs. Each
team member should be encouraged to speak up so that others can express their
thoughts and feelings and so that everyone's opinions are respected. Make your
decision obvious and provide a detailed justification of what you hope to accomplish.
A leader should take a distinct approach to problem solving by applying rational,
methodical problem solving to a step-by-step procedure because a leader plans
before acting. We must first define the problem and the objective. The next step is to
gather information or data, assess it, weigh our options, and develop solutions.
Finally, we might decide and act on that decision.
Answer:
Giving lower attention to less important issues was a mistake on my part. I
have a lot of coursework, for instance, but I've chosen to put it off in favor of going
out or napping. I now have a ton of schoolwork to finish and am unable to do so on
time because of that decision. I have a lot of coursework, for instance, but I've
chosen to put it off in favor of going out or napping. I now have a ton of schoolwork
to finish and am unable to do so on time as a result of that decision.
ASSIGNMENT: How many of these alternatives did you or your group generate?
What alternatives did you identify that are not included in this list?
Answer:
I made a mistake by assigning less important stuff a lower priority. For
example, I have a lot of coursework that I have chosen not to do in favor of going out
or napping. As a result of that decision, I now have a mountain of coursework to do
and am unable to do so on time. For example, I have a lot of coursework that I have
chosen not to do in favor of going out or napping. As a result of that decision, I now
have a mountain of coursework to do and am unable to do so on time.
Answer:
Yes. Even after accounting for gender differences in size, the adult male brain
is roughly 10% larger than the adult female brain. This difference, however, does not
appear to be predictive of intelligence or decision-making abilities. The amygdale, a
brain area, appears to be important. Women appear to have stronger links between
the amygdale and the areas of the brain that control language and higher-order
thinking. This could be one of the reasons why women are more likely than men to
express their emotions and analyze things vocally. Right-brained people are more
concerned with aesthetics, emotion, and creativity, whereas left-brained subjects are
more concerned with logical thinking, analysis, and correctness.

Answer:
Leaving emotion out of the decision-making process and continually asking
oneself if it is the right thing to do were the reasons that helped me make rational
decisions when describing the two best and two worst mistakes I have ever made in
my life. Evaluating my ability to choose between two or more alternatives in order to
achieve the best result in the shortest amount of time
Answer:
I have decided to pursue a career in nursing. You must first complete the
required schooling in order to achieve this. After that, the NCLEX Test must be
passed. The last step is to submit an application for a license in the state where you
intend to work. This is a fair definition of the administrative guy since he puts his own
satisfaction before getting the greatest result. This decision-maker has no problem
with making the current situation simpler. In other words, he does not recognize and
consider all other options before performing his preferred choice.
In contrast to the economic man, who maximizes—selects the best option from all of
his available options—administrative man satisfices, or looks for a course of action
that is acceptable or "good enough."
The economic man theory holds that individuals always behave in their own best
interests and strive to accumulate more riches.
Answer:
These are the list of the most important considerations while selecting a state
for officers.
- Knowledge
- Possess an Objective Way of Thinking
- Courage Conflict is a constant. "Being at the forefront of those confrontations is
what leadership implies."
- Being an officer requires honesty and integrity; without these qualities, making the
proper judgment would be impossible.
-Excellent communication abilities, including the ability to speak clearly, concisely,
and with assurance.
-Accountability: Taking ownership of your behavior.
-Judgment. Good decision-making is defined as the capacity to respond swiftly and
successfully to challenging circumstances.
We should approach the data collection to address this issue by conducting surveys,
interviews, and observations. Records, papers, and histories
Assignment: Examine both the individual aspects of decision making and the
critical' elements in making decisions. Make a plan including a goal, a list of
information and data that you need to gather and areas where you may be
vulnerable to poor decision making. Examine the consequences of each alternative
available to you. After you have done this as an individual, form a small group and
share your decision-making planning with members of your group. How was your
decision making like others in the group, and how was it different?
Answer:
List of information and data that we need to gather in making plan in decision
making
Goals should be S.M.A.R.T
1. Specific.
Have a clear definition of exactly what you want to accomplish
2. Measurable.
Have measurable targets or checkpoints along the way that you can aim
for and celebrate
3. Attainable.
Your goal should be reachable and realistic
4. Relevant.
Your goal should be something that is meaningful and important to you.
This will keep you motivated to strive for it.
5. Time-Bound.
Identify a specific period of time for reaching that goal.
Assignment: Write a one-page essay about a problem that you solved or a decision
that you made this year describe what theoretical model, if any, you used to assist
you in the process determine if you consciously used the model or if it was purely by
accident did you enlist the help of other experts in solving the problem?
Answer:
This year, I made a choice that I would describe as intuitive since, as
students, we frequently rely more on instinct, gut feelings, and premonition than we
do on carefully compiling and evaluating the available data. When making decisions,
we also rely on intuition and gut feelings. Most of the time, we students make
judgments without the aid of systems, tools, or mathematics.
Answer:
In such a situation, I would choose my course of action by applying both
problem-solving frameworks. Since verbal communication is not always possible,
observation is essential to determining the person's preferences. Decisions made in
the past have an effect on choices made in the future since they are a reflection of a
person's character and beliefs. Contrarily, people attempt to refrain from repeating
their errors because doing so will provide favorable outcomes. Decision-making is
influenced by taking risks since they have both high potential benefits and high
potential drawbacks.
CHAPTER 2
CLASSICAL VIEWS OF LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT
Answer:
Answer:
Effective Leadership
List additional characteristics that you believe an effective leader possesses. Which
leadership characteristics do you have? Do you believe that were born with
leadership skills or have consciously developed them during lifetime? If so, how did
you developthem?
Answer:
Define your predominant leadership style. Ask those who work with you if in their
honest opinion this is indeed the leadership style that you use most often. What style
of leadership do you work best under? What leadership style best describes your
present or former managers?
Answer:
Answer:
In this instance, I'll explain why we don't allow situations like that in the
hospital and the consequences of what they're doing. Next, ask yourself if such
conditions actually exist. All patients must be informed about the policies and
procedures of the hospital before to admission so that they can decide whether or
not they are willing to abide by them. In order to better understand each patient, you
should be familiar with their culture and values prior to your visit.
say that having the nurse-manager adhere to hospital policy was a management
function and that counseling staff was a leadership role.
Assignment: List at least five management functions and five leadership roles that
you could also delineate in this scenario. Share these with your group.
Answer:
Five management functions
4. Staffing: Identifying and hiring personnel for positions inside the business
(within teams and departments).
• Innovator – A good leader is always considering new ways to add value, and
innovation frequently leads to growth.
• Listener. Terrific listeners make good leaders. In actuality, the finest leaders watch
more and speak less. Make sure you pay attention when the individuals you lead
speak.
Answer:
Yes. You provide coworkers the ability to share ideas, learn from one another,
and work toward a common goal by involving them in the decision-making process.
Employee participation in decision-making shows people throughout the organization
that their perspective is respected and valued. assessing my decision-making
abilities by a thorough examination of the planning, execution, or results of a project
for data or decision-making. One of the managerial abilities that I believe needs
improvement is time management. Even now, as a student, it can be difficult to find
enough time to finish everything on time, particularly when certain team members
are disobedient. Poor time management may also have an adverse effect on work-
life balance.
Answer:
CHAPTER 3
Greenleaf (1977) suggested that true test of servant leadership is the servant
leader’s ability to create a service inclination in others. In doing so, more leaders are
created for organization.
Assignment: Identify service leader who you have worked with. Did they motivate
followers to be service oriented? If so, what strategies did the use? Does servant
leadership result in a greater number of leaders within an organization? If so, do you
think that this happens?
Answer:
Because they share authority, prioritize the needs of others, and support
others in growing and performing at their best, servant leaders can indeed inspire
followers. Additionally, they provide their followers, colleagues, and the workplace
community their undying support and pay attention to their needs and interests. They
also present opportunities for initiative on the part of followers. Finally, servant
leaders include their followers in the decision-making process, which is primarily
concerned with the group's welfare.
You are a team leader for 10 patients on a busy unit. Your team includes Lori, an
LVM passing medications and assisting with patient’s treatment and tom, an
experiences CNA who provides basic care such as monitoring vital signs, ambulating
patients and assisting with hygiene. On several occasions in the past, Tom has failed
to report significant changes in patient’s vital signs to you until sometime had
elapsed or you discover them yourself. Despite Confronting Tom about the need to
report this changes, and the specific vital sign parameters that need to be reported,
this behavior has continued. You have concerned that patient harm might occur if
this pattern of behavior is allowed to continue.
Assignment: Identify possible motives that Tom (the agent) may have for falling to
share this information with you (the principal). What incentives might you employ to
modify his behavior?
Answer:
Think back on a recent decision you made that was more emotional laden than
usual. Were you safe aware about what emotions were influencing your thinking and
how your emotions might have influenced the course of action you chose? Were you
able to objectively identify the emotions that other experiencing and how this emotion
influenced their actions?
Answer:
Assignment: Think of a leader who espoused one message and then acted in a
different manner. How did it affect the leader’s ability to be an effective leader? How
did it change hoe you personally felt about that leader? Do you feel that leaders who
have lost their: authenticity” can ever regain the trust of their follower?
Answer:
Answer:
would be the planning and carrying out of the integration of EHR software and
components in a healthcare company.
This is the process that they used to develop and market their innovations
1. Deciding who will be involved in choosing the EHR and arranging them.
Requirements gathering: requirements gathering refers to the process of
determining what features and functionality your practice requires in an EHR.
2. RFI and RFP: once the requirements list has been created the selection team
will research potential vendors and then submit Requests for Information
(RFI) and Request for Proposals (RFP) to prospective vendors.
3. Evaluate RFI and RFP responses: once RFIs and RFPs have been returned
the selection team will evaluate these responses based on how well they
adhere to the requirements list.
6. Selection; contracts are negotiated and the process moves forward to actually
implementing the EHR.
7. Planning and go-live preparation: with the help of the candidate, the selection
team and representatives from the involve will plan out how the software and
hardware will be deployed. Also, plans will be made for staff to be trained on
the new system.
Assignment: Decide which of the options you would select, Rank order them in
terms of what you would do first then look at your list. Did it reflect more of the
industrial leadership paradigm or a relationship leadership paradigm? What
inferences might you draw from your rank ordering in terms of your leadership skills?
Do you think that your rank ordering might change with your age? Your experience?
Answer:
"Modeling the Way" is the first strategy, whereby leaders set an example for
the attitudes and behaviors they want their followers to adopt. By taking the initiative
and participating, leaders earn the respect of their followers and the authority to lead.
The second method of leadership is known as "Inspiring a Shared Goal," and it
entails the leader picturing what the organization may become and then coming up
with a compelling and realistic vision. The third leadership technique is "Challenging
the Process." Successful leaders understand that leadership is a team effort and are
not reluctant to share the leadership process, which is demonstrated in the fourth
leadership practice, "Enabling Others to Act." Exemplary leaders are trailblazers who
comprehend that innovation and change include "experimentation, risk, and failure."
Leaders foster teamwork and build trust among their followers by motivating and
assisting them in producing excellent work. And finally, great leaders "Encourage the
Hearts" of their followers to help them continue on despite difficulties, irritation, and
discouragement. Leaders are aware that celebrations and rituals can foster a strong
sense of community and collective identity that can help a group survive particularly
difficult circumstances.
CRITICAL THINKING 1
Exercise 1-1
In your own words. Write a definition of critical thinking. Relate your definition to your
use of the nursing process in caring for clients?
Answer:
Critical thinking is a skill that nurses utilize to solve patient problems and
come up with more impactful judgments. It is an essential step for a safe, informed,
and successful nursing intervention. Examples of this include going back to school
and using professional and technical knowledge and abilities when providing for
clients. Critical thinking is essential for nurses to be able to make decisions based on
the information at hand, their prior experiences, and their knowledge of the business.
It also enables nurses to plan ahead before making any alterations in order to be as
effective as possible.
Exercise 1-2
All of us make personal decisions every day. These decisions may relate to work,
home, community, or other aspect of our lives. State a personal problem you face.
What outcome do you want? What means are available to achieve this outcome?
List pros and cons of each means and decide which means you will use. Then do it.
Answer:
Exercise 1-3
Refer to your local daily newspaper and identify an issue being discussed related to
local city or country) government. What are the arguments involved? Which ones do
you support? What can you do about the issue? You could have a debate on the
issue. Form a group of your peers and do the following:
CHAPTER 4
ETHICAL ISSUES
Using the ethical principle of justice, determine whether health care in this country
should be a right or a privilege. Are the uninsured and the insured "un equals" that
should be treated according to their differences? Does the type of health insurance
that one has also create a system of unequals? If so, are the unequals being treated
according to their differences?
Answer:
Decide how you will respond to Susan. Will you tell her the truth? Are your values
regarding veracity stronger or weaker than your desire to cause no harm to Susan's
feelings (nonmaleficence)?
Answer:
As Susan's friend, I'll be honest with her and tell her that I don't like being
around messy people and that it annoys me. Without gossiping about her or passing
judgment on her, I will tell her the truth since failing to do so amounts to tolerating
that person. It is always preferable to speak up than remain silent. My teacher also
said that through loving someone, you can improve that person. It is a loving act to
teach her how to be organized.
You must decide what to do. Recognize that your own value system will play a part
in your decision. List several alternatives that are available to you. Identify which
ethical frameworks or principles most affected your decision making.
Answer:
I made the decision not to let him in, not because I didn't care about his
sentiments, but because Mary's family was depending on me. In situations like this, I
believe I always make the professional decision and put my feelings aside. The
ethical principles of paternalism and fidelity have an impact on my decision-making.
Paternalism is when one person assumes the power to make decisions for another;
in this case, the family of Mary does not want the partner to visit her, and it is up to
them to decide whether to let him stay. Fidelity is keeping promises; as registered
nurses, it seems like visiting him in the PACU violates one of our promises.
1. Solve the case in small groups by using the traditional problem-solving process.
Identify the problem and several alternative solutions to solve this ethical dilemma.
What should you do and why? What are the risks? How does your value system play
a part in your decision? Justify your solution. After completing this assignment, solve
the second part of this assignment below.
2. Assume that this was a real case. Twenty-four hours after the child's discharge,
she is readmitted with critical head trauma. Police reports indicate that the child
suffered multiple skull fractures after being thrown up against the wall by her
mother's boyfriend. The child is not expected to live. Does knowing the outcome
change how you would have solved the case? Does the outcome influence how you
feel about the quality of your group's problem solving?
Answer:
Although you say it with your head, I believe the best course of action is to
make your own plans, such as visiting the family with the community nurses,
evaluating alternatives, and identifying and defining the problem. I thought that the
problem is making your own thought regarding for what is the action of the baby. For
me as a nurse, if I encounter this kind of circumstance, I also volunteer to visit the
children's home so that I will feel relieved as well, and it's because I'm so concerned
with the children's condition. I believe the possible alternatives are to cooperate with
the community nurse so that you will help in this situation so that your thoughts or
somewhat troubling you can make you feel at ease. I am aware that the nurse must
maintain her professionalism at all times, but that doesn't mean you have to stop
providing aid to those in need; you can still do so voluntarily and without hesitation.
We run the danger of alienating the families in this situation because you are
accusing them without providing any evidence. My emotional intelligence, together
with my value system, aids me in making decisions.
2. If this were a true instance, where the infant had suffered skull fractures and was
not expected to survive, I don't think my choice in number 1 would have changed. I
volunteer, and I believe that the head of the organization I asked for assistance will
change their perspective. I will also admit that the problem-solving abilities of my
organizations are quite subpar, and this kind of circumstance is wholly the result of
our community's lack of concern for others.
A job description has been written, and the job opening has been posted. As the
Chief Nursing Executive of this agency, it will be your responsibility to select the best
person for the position. Because you are aware that all hiring decisions have some
subjectivity, you want to eliminate as much personal bias as possible. Two people
have applied for the position; one of them is a close personal friend.
Answer:
Assess: You must now determine whether you made the right choice.
Plan: You want to assess your choice in six months using the stated job description
as your criterion.
Implement: This employee leaves abruptly 4 months after starting her job, thus you
are unable to carry out your plan. In another state, your acquaintance is currently
employed in a comparable position. Even though you don't communicate often, your
choice has affected the connection.
Evaluate: Did you made the right choice? This choice was made after a carefully
considered procedure that involved acquiring sufficient data and analyzing the
options. The employee's resignation was the consequence of factors outside of your
control, and you had no reason to believe it would happen. You consciously chose to
exclude or minimize your own prejudice, and you were aware of the implications of
your decision. The choice of actions seems to have been wise.
Sam and the organization have some type of responsibility to these applicants,
although the exact nature of this responsibility is one of the values in conflict.
Because this is Sam's problem and an intrapersonal conflict, he must decide the
appropriate course of action. His primary role is to examine his values and act in
accordance.
Answer:
Sam could approach his boss and express his concerns if, following value
clarity, he finds that his values conflict with the organization's instruction to say or do
whatever is necessary to attract new personnel. Sam needs to be extremely clear
about his principles and how much he is willing to give up on them. In this meeting,
he should also discuss any necessary action that has to be made to accommodate
the demands of the new staff. Sam needs to be honest about the amount of time and
effort it often takes to alter an organization's principles and beliefs. If the company
won't offer a compromise option, he must likewise be cognizant of his bottom line.
Evaluate the problem solving of the supervisor. Would your actions have differed if
you were the manager? Are there conflicting legal and ethical obligations? To whom
does the manager have the greatest obligation-patients, subordinates, or the
organization? Could the outcome have been prevented? Does this outcome reflect
on the quality of the problem solving?
Answer:
Determine what you will do. Do the potential costs outweigh the potential benefits?
Answer:
What process should this supervisor pursue to determine who should be hired for the
position? Should the position be posted? When does the benefit of using
transfers/promotions as a means of reward outweigh the cost of reduced
productivity?
Answer:
believe she still has a lot to learn. And the reason the position is being posted is
because candidates for the position have been waiting more than a year to submit
their applications. This is done in order to reward and encourage employees to work
harder, as using transfers and promotions as a form of compensation outweighs the
costs associated with lower productivity. to encourage employee happiness and
raise morale. To increase employee commitment to the company.
What is your duty in this case? What are Mr. Cole's rights? Is it ever justified to
withhold information from the physician? Will you chart the incident and will you
report it to anyone? Solve this case, justifying your decision by using ethical
principles.
Answer:
Since the patient will soon pass away and you will have nothing to lose, I
would like to acknowledge their care. I am aware that professionals are always
professionals, but in this instance Mr. Cole has the right to refuse diagnostic and
medical treatment. The patient is made aware of the medical repercussions of
refusing. The patient releases all parties involved in his care from responsibility for
the results of his or her decision; and. The patient's rejection won't endanger the
welfare of the general public. I will also note it on the patient's chart, but I will also
obtain both the patient's and his or her family members' written consent.
Answer:
Choose the best option and provide justification for your choice, come up with
implementation plans for the best option and act, assess the results, and avoid a
repeat of the same situation. My classmate's response is different from mine, but
everyone else has the same idea.
Would you have solved this problem as described? Does knowing the outcome
change the way you would solve the problem? Having a negative outcome may or
may not mean that the ethical problem solving was faulty. Do you feel the people in
this story made a faulty decision? If so, what would you have done differently?
Answer:
Having a negative outcome may or may not mean that the ethical problem
solving was flawed. Additionally, the people involved in this story, I will not say that
she made a wrong decision because we don't have the right to judge for what
decision they made. However, I will solve the problem as described, but of course I
know the outcome I will change my decision. And I will unquestionably have followed
her instructions since there is always a reason for her choices, which I will respect.
You have many options here including doing nothing. Using the MORAL ethical
problem- solving model, solve this case and compare your solution with others in
your class.
Answer:
Having a negative outcome may or may not mean that the ethical problem
solving was flawed. Additionally, the people involved in this story, I will not say that
she made a wrong decision because we don't have the right to judge for what
decision they made. However, I will solve the problem as described, but of course I
know the outcome I will change my decision. And I will unquestionably have followed
her instructions since there is always a reason for her choices, which I will respect.
CHAPTER 5
Also complete a literature search to see if you can find cases where a nurse faced
both civil and administrative charges. Were you able to find cases where the nurse
was found guilty in a civil court but did not lose his or her license? Did you find the
opposite?
Answer:
Administrative and civil proceedings were brought against a nurse. Were you
able to find instances where a nurse was found to be at fault in a civil case but did
not lose their license? One such instance is nursing negligence, which occurs when
a nurse acts in a way that falls short of the standard of care expected of someone in
their position. Nursing negligence can result in a nurse being suspended from their
position, fired, or subjected to other forms of malpractice. Nursing negligence can be
either intentional or unintentional, and it can happen for a variety of reasons.
What are the legal ramifications of this case? Using the components of professional
negligence outlined in Table 5.3, determine who in this case is guilty of malpractice
Justify your answer. At what point in the scenario should each character have altered
his or her actions to reduce the probability of a negative outcome?
Answer:
The law that applies to this case relates to the doctor's negligence. Using the
elements of professional negligence listed in Table 5.3, if the standard of care was
not met, there was a breach of duty because the doctor insisted on monitoring the
patient even though the on-duty nurse was informing the doctor about the situation.
In order to prevent a problem from arising, the nurse must report any instances
where the doctor is not performing his duties.
Additionally, both the doctor and the nurse are equally to blame. The nurse
did nothing despite being aware that the patient wasn't feeling well. If you are a
nurse, you must do so intellectually. When a professional commits to servicing a
client, professional negligence occurs when that professional violates their duty of
care to that client. The common standards that everybody can anticipate from a
service provider in a particular business are referred to in this context as the duty of
care.
Have you ever been directed in your nursing practice to do something that you
believed might be unsafe or that you felt inadequately trained or prepared to do?
What did you do? Would you act differently if the situation occurred now? What risks
are inherent in refusing to follow the direct orders of a physician or superior? What
are the risks of performing a task that you believe may be unsafe?
Answer:
As a student nurse, I don't believe I've ever engaged in that sort of behavior.
Additionally, when we perform our duties, our clinical instructor always keeps an eye
on us to ensure that we don't cause any issues or endanger the patient's life. I
believe the risk is quite real and that it can be significant in many situations. It has
the potential to make the patient really ill and to produce problems for the doctor or
nurse that could result in the loss of their license.
1. Do you believe that there are unnecessary lawsuits in the health-care industry?
2. Have you ever advised a friend or family member to sue to recover damages that
you believed they suffered as a result of poor-quality health care? What motivated
you to encourage them to do so?
3. Do you think that you will make clinical errors in judgment as a nurse? If so, what
types of errors should be considered acceptable (if any) and what types are not
acceptable?
4. Do you believe that the recent national spotlight on medical error identification and
prevention will encourage the reporting of medical errors when they do occur?
Answer:
1. Since the expert studies the situation before considering writing a report
based on the circumstances the patient is describing, I do feel that there are
no unwarranted lawsuits.
2. Because I have never encountered or am familiar with the conditions you are
referring to, I never provide advice to relatives, neighbors, or others I know.
However, if something similar occurred, I would undoubtedly take action,
especially if it affected my loved ones.
3. To be honest, I believe I will make a clinical blunder as a nurse, especially as
a registered nurse, because I am a recent graduate.
4. Yes, since I feel that disclosing these types of errors will assist the patient get
the proper care they require, as well as make the medical practitioner aware.
Discuss what you should do at this point. Why did you select this course of action?
What issues are involved here? Be able to discuss legal ramifications of this case.
Answer:
At this point, I shall tell her the truth, because it is the patient's right to know
her condition. I know she knows because the doctor gives her consent and she has
already signed. The nurse's responsibility is to discuss the outcome of the
procedure.
Identify several alternatives for action that you have. Discuss what you would do and
why. Is there a problem here? What follow-up is indicated? Attempt to solve this
learning exercise on your own before reading the sample analysis that follows.
Answer:
What do you do? What is your legal responsibility to your patient, the doctor, and the
hospital? Using your knowledge of the legal process, the Nurse Practice Act,
patients' rights, and legal precedents (look for the case Tuma V. Board of Nursing,
1979; The Law, Science & Public Health Law, n.d.), explain what you would do and
defend your decision.
Answer:
What are the legal ramifications of this case? Discuss what you should do, if
anything what responsibility and liability exist for the physician? Maggie, and
yourself? Use appropriate rationale to support your decision.
Answer:
For nursing practice, I'll rely on legislative and legal safeguards. We need to
create boundaries for LVN because no license is at stake on the LVN if the surgery
is not effective and the patient's life is jeopardized, the Physician and my license are
jeopardized. We must serve as role models. Managers are accountable for ensuring
that their own and their subordinates' practices are in accordance with current legal
norms.
To whom do you have conflicting obligations? You have little time to make this
decision. Outline the steps that you use to reach your final decision. Identify the legal
and ethical ramifications that may result from your decision. Are they in conflict?
Answer:
The Staffing Office had a conflicting obligation, because more than half of the
staff on the unit will have no experience in thoracic surgery, and Nurse should not
provide any care or perform any procedures for which she has not demonstrated
competency, and as a hospital policy, if the nurse is ill, she cannot do her work to
prevent the spread of microorganisms to the patient. The nurse has the legal right to
decline the float because the allocated nurse is ill, but refusing because the nurse
does not want to jeopardize her license is unethical.

A lot of people were asking me what are my plans after I graduate as a BSN
degree holder, and again I will say that I still don’t have any concrete nor sure plans
for my future. I’m not still sure about what my future would looks like, or if I still have
a future. The only thing I want right now is to focus in the present time and how am I
going to surpass this sadness I’ve been feeling right at the very moment.
To be honest, I’m still not in love with the course I’ve been to, and I don’t see
it as my future career. I don’t want to push myself into limits because I’m actually in
the verge of breaking down and I keep contemplating if I have a future in this career.
Nursing is not for me, I don’t see that I can give my full force best in this job. I want to
care for others but not in this profession, I wanted to pursue my dream job so bad
but I was left with no choice but to finish my course because my parents want me to
finish the degree I’m not in love with.
That’s why again I will tell you for the last time that I don’t still have plans after
I graduate, because I don’t want to strain myself and think about the possibilities it
could bring in my life. Sorry to disappoint the person who is reading this, but I’m not
that kind of people who will demand an acceptance for my ideas and point of view.
