Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

Bullying is seen as intimidating or malicious behavior associated with abuse of power. In this scenario, there is bullying on the part of the charge nurse who makes the work assignments and gives the new graduates all the difficult patients. This work assignment is not appropriate; the charge nurse is abusing her power, and this behavior leads to nurses leaving the profession. Professional development refers to skills and knowledge obtained for professional advancement or promotion. Transactional leadership is a leadership approach that utilizes rewards and discipline to motivate employees.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3, 5

Intervention is very important to remove a victim from a violent environment. Once a trusting nurse-client relationship is established, the victim can feel safe and supported and take responsibility to take the necessary steps to remove him or herself from a violent situation. Since the nurse may be the only person the patient has contact with the nurse should provide information regarding available services for the patient. If the nursing assessment reveals abuse, a team assessment should take place to assess both the physical and emotional status of the patient.
