Answer to Question 1

2, 4, 5, 6
Explanation: 1. Nurse retention may be a result of enhancing the work environment. PRN options do not
apply to job satisfaction. Positive relationships, shifts, correlation of values, and fairness are all
important issues related to job satisfaction.

Answer to Question 2

3
Explanation: 1. Monitoring and documenting the effects of the change in scheduling will allow for the
manager and director to determine its effectiveness and allow for modifications. Reviewing
and updating policies will come later if the director decides to make the change permanent.
The staff will need to be educated on the change in scheduling but the question does not
promote a reminder to staff regarding their schedules.
