Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 4
Explanation: 1. Scheduling staff as needed, part-time staff, and internal float staff are staffing options that are
termed supplemental staff. The term nurse extender is not utilized in the text.

Answer to Question 2

4
Explanation: 1. Patient care unit is a principle in which the staffing is based on the client acuity and nursing
care hours per day. Staff-related principles focus on the clinical competencies of the nurses
practicing in that area. Organizational-related principles reflect values and planning to fill
staff positions in a timely manner. There is not a client-related principle.
