ATI Leadership Proctored Questions
Question 1 of 5
When trying to facilitate change in the staff, it is necessary to build trust and recognize the need for change. This type of action is known as which of the following, according to Lewin's Force-Field Model?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Unfreezing the system.' In Lewin's Force-Field Model, unfreezing is the stage where the existing equilibrium is disrupted to motivate participants and prepare them for change. Building trust and recognizing the need for change are essential components of this stage. Choice A, 'Moving the system to a new level,' does not specifically address the initial stage of disruption. Choice C, 'Refreezing the system,' comes after change has been implemented, not before. Choice D, 'Institutionalization,' refers to the stage where the change becomes the new norm, which is different from unfreezing.

Which of the following statements is true regarding nursing ethics?

Question 3 of 5
A resident on night call refuses to answer pages from the staff nurse on the night shift and complains that she calls too often with minor problems. The nurse feels offended and reacts with frequent, middle-of-the-night phone calls to 'get back' at him. The behavior displayed by the resident and the nurse is an example of what kind of conflict?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Disruptive conflict.' In disruptive conflict, the parties involved are engaged in activities to reduce, defeat, or eliminate the opponent. In this scenario, the resident and the nurse are engaging in behaviors that disrupt their professional relationship by intentionally ignoring pages and making excessive retaliatory calls. Perceived conflict refers to a situation where one or more parties believe that a conflict exists, competitive conflict involves striving to achieve personal goals at the expense of others, and felt conflict refers to the emotional involvement in a conflict situation.
Question 4 of 5
What information will the nurse include in teaching a female patient who has peripheral arterial disease, type 2 diabetes, and sensory neuropathy of the feet and legs?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is to select flat-soled leather shoes. Patients with peripheral arterial disease, type 2 diabetes, and sensory neuropathy are at risk for foot injuries due to decreased sensation and poor circulation. Flat-soled leather shoes can help prevent injuries and provide adequate support without causing pressure points. Choice B is incorrect as using heating pads can lead to burns for patients with sensory neuropathy. Choice C is wrong because using callus remover may lead to skin damage for patients with compromised circulation. Choice D is not recommended as soaking feet in warm water can further damage the skin due to decreased sensation.
Question 5 of 5
