A CNO (chief nurse officer) is considering a collaborative effort with a school of nursing to offer externships to students. The CFO (chief financial officer) rejects the proposal because it will cost the organization.
 
  Which statement by the CNO would influence the CFO to reconsider this proposal? 1. Nursing is the foundation of this hospital and we have to get nurses into the organization.
  2. We could hire the students as nurses aides, which would save costs.
  3. An externship will allow the nursing students to work with nurses, learn about the organization, and
  create a positive impression of our facility.
  4. Offering a nurse externship would allow the organization to create the types of nurses we would like to
  hire.

Question 2

A nurse manager enters the staff break room. The manager overhears the nursing staff discussing wages and paid time off as issues to consider during the bargaining process. Which action by the manager would be appropriate?
 
  1. Leave the break room and not discuss with others what was heard.
  2. Inform staff they are not to talk about their bargaining issues during work time or at the work site.
  3. Issue a written warning regarding discussion of wages while on the job.
  4. Tell nursing administration that a strike is likely.

Answer to Question 1

3
Explanation: 1. Nursing is a large portion of the hospital staff but it is not the foundation. Hiring nursing
students as nurses aides would save cost but this position may not allow for the student to
experience a registered nurses role. Offering an externship program is a positive step for the
hospital and the school of nursing but there is no guarantee these students will stay with the
organization once they graduate.
