ATI Leadership Proctored Questions

Question 1 of 5

Which of the following is likely to facilitate union activity?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because according to a study by Bilchik (2000), organizations are more likely to unionize if there is a belief that low wages cause job dissatisfaction. Choices A and B focus on effective communication and listening, which may actually prevent union activity by addressing employee concerns directly. Choice D, the belief that supervisors are not understanding of unionizing, may lead to dissatisfaction but doesn't directly facilitate union activity as the belief that low wages cause job dissatisfaction does.

Question 2 of 5

What is the primary advantage of utilizing a modular nursing model?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The primary advantage of utilizing a modular nursing model is enhanced teamwork and collaboration among nurses. While improved patient satisfaction, cost reduction, and improved communication are essential in healthcare settings, the modular nursing model specifically focuses on restructuring care delivery to promote teamwork and efficiency. Therefore, choices A, C, and D are not the primary advantages of using a modular nursing model.

Question 3 of 5

Which information will the nurse include when teaching a 50-year-old patient who has type 2 diabetes about glyburide (Micronase, DiaBeta, Glynase)?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Glyburide stimulates insulin production and release from the pancreas. Glyburide belongs to the sulfonylurea class of antidiabetic medications, which work by stimulating the pancreas to produce and release more insulin. This helps to lower blood glucose levels. Choice A is incorrect because glyburide does not decrease glucagon secretion; instead, it acts on insulin. Choice C is incorrect because taking glyburide when blood glucose is low can lead to hypoglycemia. Choice D is incorrect as there is no specific interaction between glyburide and IV contrast media that requires avoiding its use for 48 hours.

Question 4 of 5

In dealing with a conflict on a unit, the nurse manager decides to ask one of the staff nurses, who is not moving towards resolution, to transfer to another unit. What tactic has the manager implemented?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Suppression. In this scenario, the nurse manager has implemented a suppression tactic by asking the staff nurse to transfer to another unit, which eliminates one of the conflicting parties from the current unit. This technique aims to resolve the conflict by physically separating the individuals involved. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect: Avoidance involves ignoring the conflict, withdrawal is the act of pulling out or retreating, and competition refers to a situation where one party's gain is at the expense of the other.

Question 5 of 5

A unit manager has been working to decrease the incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infections on his unit, spending extra time on the unit researching best practices and conducting training. Having completed training, the manager decides to take a couple of days off. Which of the following leadership traits is this unit manager displaying?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Balance.' The unit manager is displaying balance by recognizing the importance of taking time off to rest and recharge after working diligently to decrease infections. 'Perseverance' is not the correct choice because the manager is taking time off, not persisting in the face of challenges. 'Generosity' and 'Ability to handle stress' are also incorrect as they do not align with the situation described.
