Psychosocial IntegrityQuestion 1802 of 2368

A nurse tells a charge nurse, "Why am I getting called out when other people do this and aren't in trouble?" What should the charge nurse do?

  1. Share how other staff members were disciplined for similar actions
  2. Tell the nurse that the comparison is not worth discussing further
  3. Ask the other nurses to explain their performance to the charge nurse
  4. Focus on policies that apply to everyone, without sharing others' performance
Show answer

Correct answer: Focus on policies that apply to everyone, without sharing others' performance

Sharing information about other staff members' performance breaches confidentiality, so the leader focuses on policies and procedures that apply to everyone.
