Answer to Question 1

3
Explanation: 1. In decentralized pools, a staff member works for one unit manager or on only one unit. Highly
specialized units tend to rely on decentralized internal float pool nurses. Nurses from outside
agencies may be unfamiliar with the routine in the unit, and their services are substantially
more expensive. Nurses from another unit may not have the expertise needed to care for
patients on a highly specialized unit. Although nurses from a centralized outside agency may
be used as supplemental staff, continuity of care may be compromised.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale 1: Integrative decision making is a strategy that focuses on the process of decision making, not the outcome.
Rationale 2: Win-lose strategies allow one party to win and the other to lose.
Rationale 3: Accommodation is an unassertive strategy used when individuals neglect their own concerns in favor of the other party's concerns.
Rationale 4: Consensus occurs when the problem is fully explored, the needs and goals of both parties are addressed, and a mutual decision is made.
