ATI Leadership Practice B

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: '10 minutes.' Coaching sessions are recommended to last between 5-10 minutes to ensure they are concise and impactful. Choice A ('15 minutes') is incorrect because it exceeds the recommended duration. Choice B ('60 minutes') is incorrect as it is too long for an effective coaching session, leading to decreased engagement. Choice D ('30 minutes') is also incorrect as it surpasses the optimal time frame for a coaching session.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Strategies.' Withdrawal behaviors are actions employees take to mentally escape the work environment. Turnover, stress, and punctuality are examples of withdrawal behaviors. Turnover refers to employees leaving the workplace, stress leads to disengagement, and lack of punctuality can indicate disinterest or withdrawal. 'Strategies' do not fit the definition of withdrawal behaviors, making it the correct answer.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct action for the nurse to take next is to give the patient 4 to 6 oz more orange juice. The patient's blood glucose has increased from 62 mg/dL to 67 mg/dL after consuming the initial 4 oz of orange juice, indicating that the treatment is effective. Providing additional orange juice will help further raise the blood glucose levels. Administering glucagon (Choice B) is not necessary as the patient's blood glucose is already rising. Having the patient eat peanut butter with crackers (Choice C) is a slower-acting option compared to orange juice. Notifying the healthcare provider about the hypoglycemia (Choice D) is not needed at this point since the patient's blood glucose is improving.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'To control the spread of infections within the healthcare setting.' The primary goal of infection control practices is to prevent the transmission and spread of infections among patients, healthcare workers, and visitors. Choice A is incorrect because while infection control practices may indirectly contribute to shorter hospital stays by preventing additional complications, reducing the length of hospital stays is not their primary goal. Choice B is incorrect as ensuring patient safety and preventing infections are important outcomes of infection control practices but not the primary goal. Choice D is incorrect because compliance with healthcare regulations is a requirement that supports the implementation of infection control practices but is not the primary goal of these practices.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, smart infusion pumps. Smart infusion pumps are an example of a clinical decision support system (CDSS) as they help ensure accurate medication delivery by providing alerts and dosage calculations. Choice A, electronic health record (EHR), is not a CDSS but rather a digital version of a patient's paper chart. Choice B, barcode medication administration, involves scanning barcodes to verify medication administration but is not a CDSS. Choice D, automated drug dispensing system, automates the medication dispensing process but is not specifically a CDSS.
