QUESTION
Which statement indicates understanding of how a nurse could improve decision-making skills?
1. “We should gather a group together to make important unit decisions to ensure
fairness.”
2. “I should practice making decisions by developing potential solutions and then choosing one.”
3. “I know I will never be able to improve my decision-making skills because I am
not a strong person.”
4. “We can make a decision and then ask for input from others to make sure it was the right choice.”
ANSWER:
Answer: 2
Rationale: Practicing making decisions will increase the nurse’s experience, comfort, and overall skill. Including a “we” as in group decision making is not an appropriate method to improve personal decision-making skills. These skills can be learned regardless of the type of person.
