A nurse has been asked to teach newly hired nurses how to operate some client care equipment that the unit has just received. The nurse says, I'd love to do this, but someone else will need to take my clients today.
 
   How should the manager respond? 1. You will need to work the education into your day as you take care of clients.
  2. This will be a good break for you.
  3. You can use the classroom in the hospital basement for your instruction.
  4. I will authorize your additional salary for the next pay period.

Question 2

One of the nurses often fails to attend educational offerings available to the staff. The nurse manager who implies the nurse may receive a negative evaluation is using:
 
  1. Coercive power.
  2. Information power.
  3. Referent power.
  4. Reward power.

Answer to Question 2

Explanation: 1. Coercive power is based on penalties a manager might impose on an employee. A negative
evaluation is a penalty. Information power is based on information a manager has and
employees want. Referent power is based on the respect the followers have for the manager.
Reward power is based on the inducements a manager can give to the employees.
