Answer to Question 1

1
Explanation: 1. The manager should address the behavior in private and investigate the situation. It may or
may not be appropriate to give a warning. As part of the investigation it would be appropriate
to discuss the complaints of staff in a general manner. It is inappropriate to have nursing staff
address the issues amongst themselves.

Answer to Question 2

3

employees decision to follow up with the HR director is appropriate. The employee should
