Answer to Question 1

1,2,4
Rationale 1: Continuity of care may suffer when care is given by more than one person.
Rationale 2: Team nursing requires excellent communication skills in all team members, who must communicate with clients, families, and each other.
Rationale 3: Team nursing does save on personnel costs.
Rationale 4: The RN must be careful to delegate only tasks that are appropriate for the skill level and licensure of the designated personnel. The RN is ultimately responsible for all client care.
Rationale 5: Team nursing does reduce the numbers of professional staff required.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

1,2,3,5
Rationale 1: There is no legal reason to hire only females in labor and delivery and postpartum.
Rationale 2: There is no reason an older male or a female could not be hired as a transporter.
Rationale 3: It is not legal to ask questions regarding military service prior to hire.
Rationale 4: Being bilingual is a qualification necessary for work in some emergency departments. The nurse could not hire based on national origin, just on the basis of speaking more than one language.
Rationale 5: There is no reason a man could not be successful as a unit clerk.
Global Rationale:
