A patient care services director is discussing past experiences while employed at other organizations with regard to staff evaluations. The director states forced distribution evaluations are usually used as a result of:
 
  1. Evaluation inflation.
  2. Several exceptional employees.
  3. Many unhappy employees.
  4. Large numbers of staff.

Question 2

The nurse manager is significantly behind in the required paperwork for the job. How can the manager rectify this situation?

  2. Use paper for all communication so a record is kept.
  3. Discontinue subscriptions to all journals.
  4. Set a goal to work on paperwork for a portion of every day.

Answer to Question 1

Explanation: 1. Forced distribution evaluations prevent a manager from inflating all employee evaluations.
The manager is limited to a certain number of excellent employees. This type of evaluation is
not a favorite of managers or employees.

Answer to Question 2

Rationale 1: Stacking work around the desk can make work more difficult and overwhelming. It is better to file materials and keep a running to-do list of projects.
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.
