Answer to Question 1

B
The nurse should discuss the situation with the nursing manager who interviewed him before quitting. Perhaps there is a temporary problem affecting staffing that could explain the situation. If after this discussion it is believed that the staffing is not now or ever will be as it was relayed to him in the interview, then he should seek employment elsewhere.

Answer to Question 2

D
