Answer to Question 1

1,5
Rationale 1: The facts should be presented honestly and as completely as possible without breaching confidentiality.
Rationale 2: Unrest and employee turnover cannot honestly be categorized as minor problems with staffing.
Rationale 3: It would not be fair to hire a nurse into this unit without providing some history.
Rationale 4: Focusing on the rest of the facility is not a fair representation of the work environment a nurse could expect on this unit.
Rationale 5: Candidates should be made aware of the problems and what is being done to correct them.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

1
Explanation: 1. The autocratic leader makes all the decisions and has the authority. This would be the most
effective type of leadership in a code situation. The other leadership styles would be ineffective
in an emergency situation.
