Answer to Question 1

2,3
Rationale 1: While isolated or unlit parking can be a safety concern, there is no reason that staff should have the parking next to the facility. There are also concerns for visitor and client safety to consider.
Rationale 2: Instituting environmental controls such as security devices and curved mirrors are measures to ensure safety.
Rationale 3: Instituting environmental controls such as security devices and curved mirrors are measures to ensure safety.
Rationale 4: Just because a client is confused does not indicate a tendency toward violence or a need for restraints.
Rationale 5: While all staff should be trained regarding violence, physical self-defense training is not practical for every staff member.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: Higher job satisfaction occurs when delegation skills are improved, but this is not the most important outcome.
Rationale 2: Effective delegation may result in greater confidence in skills, but this is not the most important outcome.
Rationale 3: When effective delegation takes place in an organization, everyone benefits. This leads to higher client satisfaction, which is the ultimate goal of nursing care and nursing management.
Rationale 4: If delegation skills improve, the delegator should have increased time for other endeavors. This is not the most important outcome of increasing delegation skills.
