Answer to Question 1

1,2,4,5
Rationale 1: Flooding would be a big concern for a hospital on the gulf coast.
Rationale 2: Hurricane would be a big concern for a hospital on the gulf coast.
Rationale 3: Earthquakes may occur on any fault line, but this is not a primary concern on the gulf coast.
Rationale 4: Tornadoes often accompany hurricanes and would be a big concern on the gulf coast.
Rationale 5: Industrial accidents would be of concern related to the large oil production capacity of the gulf waters.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

4
Explanation: 1. In order to direct the drop-in visit, the nurse manager should stand up and remain standing
throughout the encounter. The gesture is gracious yet obvious enough to encourage a short
visit. Setting office hours is incorrect because office hours should be established to decrease
drop-in visits, but the intent is not to totally eliminate all drop-in visits. Keeping the door
closed is incorrect because a block of time when the door is open for accessibility and
availability is needed. Holding meetings in the office is incorrect because it is easier to leave
someones office than to remove an individual from one.
