ATI Leadership Proctored Exam 2023 Quizlet

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Controlling. Controlling involves comparing actual results with the projected results in the budget to assess performance and take corrective actions if necessary. Choice A, Variable budgeting, focuses on adjusting the budget based on activity levels. Choice C, Revenue sharing, refers to distributing a portion of revenue among stakeholders. Choice D, Incremental budgeting, involves making minor adjustments to the existing budget for the next period based on previous budgets.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, 'Desire to leave.' Voluntary turnover occurs when an employee chooses to leave the organization. In this case, it is a direct function of the nurse's desire to leave. Termination and forced resignation are involuntary processes where the decision is made by the employer, not the employee. 'Floating' refers to the reassignment of a nurse to a unit different from their usual work unit and is not directly related to turnover.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: In this situation, it is best to seek another position within the healthcare organization and apply for a transfer. Making professional decisions should involve careful evaluation and consideration. It is important to align personal values with the organizational culture. By seeking advice from a mentor or counselor, you can gain valuable insights and consider different perspectives. Resigning abruptly, complaining to staff, or informing the chief nursing officer without exploring other options may not be the most effective or professional approach in this scenario.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: During a staffing crisis, managers may need to utilize unlicensed assistive personnel (UAPs) as nurse extenders. UAPs help free up nurses' time, enabling them to focus more on direct client care. Float RNs (Choice A) refer to registered nurses who work in various units as needed, not specifically as nurse extenders during crises. LPNs (Choice C) are licensed practical nurses, not typically used as nurse extenders. Agency nurses (Choice D) are temporary nurses hired from external agencies, not necessarily designated as nurse extenders.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The main purpose of conducting a SWOT analysis in healthcare is to assess external opportunities along with identifying strengths, weaknesses, and threats. While identifying strengths and weaknesses is a part of the analysis, the primary goal is to evaluate external opportunities and threats to develop strategic goals. Option A is incorrect as the analysis encompasses more than just strengths and weaknesses. Option B is incorrect as developing strategic goals is a result of the analysis, not the main purpose. Option D is incorrect as streamlining healthcare processes is not the primary focus of a SWOT analysis.
