Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: Functional nursing does not focus on specific outcomes.
Rationale 2: Differentiated practice does not focus on specific outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: Maximizing the availability of nursing allows for more nurses but doesn't take into account the staffing mix. If the RN number is low, flexibility is lower.
Rationale 2: Good communication among staff is very important but does not create the greatest flexibility.
Rationale 3: A high RN-skill mix allows for more flexibility to meet client needs. An RN is educated and licensed to provide care that an assistant or LPN cannot provide.
Rationale 4: Overlap between shifts may provide more staff, but if the staff members are not RNs, flexibility is not appreciably increased.
Global Rationale:
