Answer to Question 1

A
For team-building to occur, team members need to be able to listen actively and respect one another's opinions, while feeling comfortable in openly expressing their own.

Answer to Question 2

A, D, E
Press Ganey publishes the Pulse Report about patients' perspectives of their health care expe-riences. The 2011 report revealed the following as very important to hospital patients: response to concerns and complaints made during the stay, degree to which hospital staff addressed emo-tional stress associated with the hospital stay, staff effort to include patients in treatment deci-sions, promptness in responding to the call button, and how well the nurses kept patients in-formed. The top five items on the inpatient priority index in the Press Ganey 2011 Hospital Pulse Report are evidence that nurses have a prominent role in patient satisfaction with the health care product and thus are contributors to a hospital's ability to be competitive in the marketplace.
