Question 1 of 5

Achieving Magnet Hospital designation offers hospitals the following advantages: (Select one that does not apply.)

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. Achieving Magnet Hospital designation provides advantages such as greater client satisfaction, improved nursing recruitment, and nurses who are independent decision makers. However, the statement about 'Greater client workload' is not a typical advantage associated with Magnet recognition. Organizations that achieve Magnet recognition focus on improving nursing work environments, empowering nurses, and enhancing patient care quality, rather than increasing client workload. Therefore, C is the correct choice. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they align with the benefits of achieving Magnet Hospital designation as they lead to increased satisfaction, better recruitment, and more empowered nurses.

Question 2 of 5

What is the primary focus of the Triple Aim in healthcare?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The primary focus of the Triple Aim in healthcare is indeed improving patient experience. While reducing healthcare costs and improving population health are important components of the Triple Aim framework, the primary goal is to enhance the overall experience of patients. Ensuring regulatory compliance, although important in healthcare, is not one of the primary focuses of the Triple Aim.

Question 3 of 5

Which of the following best describes the purpose of a root cause analysis (RCA)?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Discover the underlying causes of an error.' Root cause analysis (RCA) focuses on identifying the fundamental reason(s) that led to an error or problem rather than placing blame on individuals. Choice A and B are incorrect as RCA is not about pinpointing a specific person to blame or determining disciplinary actions. Choice D is also incorrect as the primary goal of RCA is not to evaluate policy effectiveness but to uncover the root causes of issues for effective problem-solving.

Question 4 of 5

The staff in the emergency department has presented the nurse leader with a suggestion for streamlining the triage process, cutting down on wait times. Which of the following qualities does the leader specifically need to implement the suggestion?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Initiative is the correct quality needed in this situation. The staff has provided a suggestion for improvement, and the leader must take the initiative to implement it. Courage, integrity, and energy are valuable qualities as well but in this context, the most essential quality is initiative to drive the change forward and improve the triage process efficiently.

Question 5 of 5

After correcting the IVF infusion rate, what should be the next step in the client's care?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct next step in the client's care after correcting the IVF infusion rate is to complete an incident report. This report is crucial for documenting the event, identifying the root cause of the error, and implementing measures to prevent similar incidents in the future. Notifying the family, disciplining the previous nurse, and obtaining legal consultation are not immediate priorities in this situation. Family notification may be necessary later but ensuring patient safety and proper documentation come first. Disciplining the previous nurse should be handled through the appropriate professional channels, not as an immediate response to the incident. Legal consultation may be needed in some cases but is not the initial step required after correcting the error and ensuring the client's safety.
