Rationale 2: Using e-mail for communication reduces the amount of paper flow through the office, thereby reducing clutter.
Rationale 3: The nurse manager must keep current on nursing issues, so the journal subscriptions are important and should be maintained.
Rationale 4: The best of these options is to set a goal to work on paperwork for a portion of every day.
