Two nurses have recently transferred from the medical/respiratory unit to a newly developed respiratory ICU. The nurse manager fears more nurses will follow because:
 
  1. Coworkers may feel rejected and lose respect for their current jobs.
  2. Peers usually follow friends to new jobs.
  3. Hospital administrators usually hire from within for new units.
  4. Only nurses with respiratory experience can be hired in ICU.

Question 2

The charge nurse on the evening shift has been working on the unit for 14 years. When the unit manager is on vacation, the charge nurse fills in the leadership role.
 
  While in this role the charge nurse senses a change in the nursing staffs morale. The staff appears happier, more energetic and productive. The charge nurse believes this change is a direct effect of the: 1. Staffs relationship with the nurse manager.
  2. Environment of the organization.
  3. Staffs wages.
  4. Shifts they are working.
