During performance appraisal interviews, Joanne's nurse manager notices Joanne's excitement when she talks about how she has helped patients on a rehab unit understand the complexities of their regimens.
 
  When Joanne's nurse manager asks her about her career path plans, Joanne says that she wants to become a nurse administrator. The best response to Joanne would be: a. Nursing administration is rewarding. What experiences would help you along this path?
  b. You do not appear excited about nursing administration. Unless you are excited by that career path, I wouldn't advise going in that direction.
  c. You seem to find teaching others very rewarding. Have you considered that as a possible career path?
  d. You are too inexperienced to consider administration. Work for a few years, and then consider administration.

  a. limited visas.
  b. language barriers.
  c. cultural differences.
  d. the inability of IENs to pass state board exams.

Answer to Question 1

C
Joanne evidences excitement about teaching patients, and although administration could be a re-warding path for her, education might be a better option for her to consider. Looking at job as-pects that are rewarding is helpful in determining which career direction to pursue.

Answer to Question 2

A
According to McHugh et al. (2008), major barriers to recruitment of IENs have been related to both limited visas and ethical concerns related to depletion of nursing resources in other coun-tries.
