ATI Proctored Leadership Exam Questions
Question 1 of 5
The healthcare provider is developing a critical pathway for congestive heart failure (CHF). Which components are essential to include? (Select ONE that does not apply.)
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Critical pathways are designed to outline the expected sequence and timing of interventions to achieve optimal patient outcomes for a specific medical condition. Components such as the expected length of stay, patient outcomes, and medical diagnosis are crucial in developing a critical pathway for congestive heart failure. However, the assigned staff healthcare provider is not typically a fixed component of a critical pathway as it may vary based on staffing schedules and rotations. Therefore, the assigned staff healthcare provider is the component that does not apply.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse manager asks the staff to submit written suggestions for a change in policy. The group would then vote on the different suggestions. What type of decision-making technique did the nurse manager use?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The nurse manager used the nominal group technique. This technique involves group members submitting written suggestions, followed by a voting process. Statistical aggregation involves analyzing numerical data, not suggestions. Brainstorming focuses on generating creative ideas collectively, without a structured voting process. Delphi technique involves reaching a consensus through a series of questionnaires or surveys, without a direct voting process.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following best describes the role of a nurse navigator?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A nurse navigator's primary role is to coordinate complex care for patients, guiding them through the healthcare system. Choice A is incorrect because nurse navigators do not provide direct patient care like nurses in clinical settings. Choice C is incorrect as nurse navigators focus on patient care coordination rather than administrative tasks. Choice D is incorrect as managing clinical trials is typically not within the scope of a nurse navigator's responsibilities.
Question 4 of 5
Which action by a patient indicates that the home health nurse�s teaching about glargine and regular insulin has been successful?

Question 5 of 5
Healthcare systems primarily have functional structures. Which of the following would be an example of this?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. In functional structures, employees are grouped in departments by specialty, with similar tasks being performed by the same group. This means that in a healthcare system with a functional structure, all nursing tasks would fall under the nursing service. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because open communication between departments, one department having authority over another, or the level of authority of a particular department do not necessarily represent a functional structure.
