Answer to Question 1

b

a. Incorrect: The nurse has not promoted a scenario in which nurses will continue to complain about all of the equipment they would like to see improved. She has demonstrated ethical practice because she has reported a situation in which patient care could be compromised if the faulty equipment is not replaced.
b. Correct: The nurse manager has demonstrated ethical practice in the workplace.
c. Incorrect: The nurse has promoted ethical behaviour to ensure patient safety.
d. Incorrect: The nurse has promoted ethical behaviour to ensure patient safety. In this case, the request may impact the capital budget, but that is not what the nurse is promoting directly.
