Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
One problem confronted by the new graduate is the seeming impossibility of
delivering quality care within the constraints of the system as it exists. Kramer characterized
this phenomenon as reality shock, not burnout, culture shock or job disorientation.
3. A counselor diagnoses a critical care nurse with having the syndrome known as burnout.

Answer to Question 2

Characteristics of the competent nurse include beginning to see the current situation
in terms of long-range goals. This nurse is able to prioritize among patients and base actions on

nurse.
