Yoder-Wise: Leading and Managing in Nursing, 5th Edition

Chapter 05: Legal and Ethical Issues

Test Bank

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. The manager in the coronary care unit believes that the most important ethical
considerations in performance evaluations are that they include the employee’s
good qualities and that they give positive direction for professional growth.
This belief is an example of:
a. Justice.
b. Fidelity.
c. Beneficence.
d. Nonmaleficence.

ANS: D
Nonmaleficence refers to “doing no harm.” By focusing only on good qualities, the
manager seeks to do no harm to the employee.

REF: Page 90 TOP: AONE competency: Professionalism

2. A staff nurse in the area that you manage has excelled in the delivery of client
education. You are considering implementing a new job description that would
broaden her opportunity to teach client and orient new staff members to the
value of client education. The ethical principle that you are most directly
reinforcing is:
a. Justice.
b. Fidelity.
c. Paternalism.
d. Respect for others.

Test Bank 5-2

ANS: C
Paternalism involves making decisions for others about what is best and, in this
instance, what is best for the nurse and her colleagues.

REF: Page 90 TOP: AONE competency: Professionalism

3. A client refuses a simple procedure that you believe is in the client’s best
interest. The two ethical principles that are directly in conflict in such a
situation are:
a. Fidelity and justice.
b. Veracity and fidelity.
c. Autonomy and beneficence.
d. Paternalism and respect for others.
ANS: C
Autonomy refers to the freedom to make a choice (e.g., refuse a procedure), and
beneficence to doing good (performing a procedure that will benefit the patient).

REF: Pages 89, 90 TOP: AONE competency: Professionalism

4. An applicant in a wheelchair is applying for the position of receptionist in an

outpatient clinic. The nurse manager understands that the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990 requires that employers:
a. Make reasonable accommodations for persons who are disabled.
b. Allow modified job expectations for persons recovering from alcoholism.
c. Hire disabled individuals before hiring other qualified, non-disabled persons.
d. Treat, for purposes of employment, homosexuals and bisexuals as disabled.

ANS: A
The purposes of the ADA are to eliminate discrimination against persons with
disabilities and to provide consistent, enforceable standards to address
discrimination in the workplace.

REF: Page 85 TOP: AONE competency: Business Skills

5. A staff nurse who was fired for reporting client abuse to the appropriate state
agency files a whistleblower lawsuit against the former employer. Reasons that
the court would use in upholding a valid whistleblower suit claiming retaliation
include that the nurse:
a. Had previously reported the complaint, in writing, to hospital administration.
b. Had threatened to give full details of the client abuse to local media sources.
c. Was discharged after three unsuccessful attempts at progressive discipline had
failed.
d. Had organized, before filing the complaint, a work stoppage action by fellow
employees.

ANS: A

Test Bank 5-3

An employer is unable to fire an employee who, in good faith, reports what is

believed to be a violation of a law, rule, or state or federal law.

REF: Pages 87, 88

TOP: AONE competency: Knowledge of the Healthcare Environment

6. In keeping with standards of The Joint Commission (TJC), the nurse manager
organizes an orientation for new staff members. As part of the orientation, the
nurse manager reviews the employee handbook. Employers may be bound to
statements in the employee handbook:
a. Under the doctrine of apparent agency.
b. Under the doctrine of respondeat agency.
c. Based on the employee’s or the employer’s expectations.
d. Based on the theory that the handbook creates an explicit contract.

ANS: C
The handbook is an implied contract and frames the employment contract.

REF: Page 71
TOP: AONE competency: Knowledge of the Healthcare Environment

7. To reduce the incidence of falls in a skilled nursing unit, the nurse manager
contacts the risk manager. Risk management is a process that attempts to
identify potential hazards and:
a. Compensate for previous injuries.
b. Eliminate these risks before anyone else is harmed.
c. Supersede the need for staff members to file incident reports.
d. Discipline staff members who have been involved in previous incident reports.

ANS: B
Risk management involves taking proactive steps to identify and eliminate risks
and liability.

REF: Page 83
TOP: AONE competency: Knowledge of the Healthcare Environment

8. One means of ensuring that nurses floated to other patient care areas in
healthcare organizations are qualified to work in those areas is:
a. Employing additional staff to assist with orientation processes.
b. Cross-educating staff members to other areas of the institution.
c. Transferring clients to units where the staffing pattern is optimal.
d. Orienting staff members to all client care areas as part of their general
orientation to the institution.

ANS: B

Copyright © 2011 by Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc.

Test Bank 5-4

Nurses should be floated to units as similar as possible to their own to decrease the
potential for liability. Negotiating cross-training, a proactive approach to
temporary staffing problems, reduces the potential for liability.

REF: Page 78
TOP: AONE competency: Knowledge of the Healthcare Environment

9. A colleague asks you to give her your password access so that she can view her
partner’s healthcare record. This request violates the patient’s right to:
a. Privacy.
b. Confidentiality.
c. Undue authorization of treatment.
d. Protection against slander.

ANS: A
Privacy refers to the right to protection against unreasonable and unwarranted
interference with the patient’s solitude, which extends, in the medical context, to
protection against public disclosure of private facts about the patient to the public.

REF: Pages 82, 83

TOP: AONE competency: Knowledge of the Healthcare Environment

10. On your nursing unit, you employ LPNs, RNs, and advanced practice nurses.
You will need to be familiar with at least:
a. Two nursing practice acts.
b. Two nursing practice acts in most states.
c. At least one nursing practice act.
d. One nursing practice act and a medical act.

ANS: D
In all states, you will need to be familiar with at least one nursing practice act. In
some states, there may be two nursing practice acts if RNs and LPNs/LVNs come
under different licensing boards.

REF: Page 70
TOP: AONE competency: Knowledge of the Healthcare Environment

11. A nurse on your inpatient psychiatric unit is found to have made sexually
explicit remarks toward a patient with a previous history of sexual abuse. The
patient sues, claiming malpractice. Which of the following conditions would
likely not apply in this situation?
a. Injury
b. Causation
c. Breach of duty
d. Breach of duty of care owed

Copyright © 2011 by Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier Inc.

Test Bank 5-5

ANS: A
By virtue of employment, the nurse owes a duty of care to the patient; this care has
been breached by a nurse, who would be expected to know that this behavior
violates usual standards of care. If further distress can be directly linked to the
remarks, then causation is established. Because of the physical nature of the injury,
it may not be possible to establish injury in the suit.

 IN MEMORIAM.

I T is within the bounds of entire accuracy to say that the death of no

man ever created a deeper and more universal sorrow than that which
responded to the announcement that H W G had paid
his final debt of nature, and was gone to his last account. The sense of
grief and regret attained the dignity of a national bereavement, and was
at one and the same time both public and personal. The young and gifted
Georgian had made a great impression upon his country and his time;
blending an individuality, picturesque, strong and attractive, and an
eloquence as rarely solid as it was rhetorically fine, into a character of
the first order of eminence and brilliancy. In every section of the Union,
the people felt that a noble nature and a splendid intellect had been
subtracted from the nation’s stock of wisdom and virtue. This feeling
was intensified the nearer it approached the region where he was best
known and honored: but it reached the farthest limits of the land, and
was expressed by all classes and parties with an homage equally
ungrudging and sincere.
In Georgia, and throughout the Southern States, it rose to a
lamentation. He was, indeed, the hope and expectancy of the young
South, the one publicist of the New South, who, inheriting the spirit of
the old, yet had realized the present, and looked into the future, with the
eyes of a statesman and the heart of a patriot. His own future was fully
assured. He had made his place; had won his spurs; and he possessed the
qualities, not merely to hold them, but greatly to magnify their
importance. That he should be cut down upon the threshold of a career,
for whose magnificent development and broad usefulness all was
prepared, seemed a cruel dispensation of Providence and aroused a heart-
breaking sentiment far beyond the bounds compassed by Mr. Grady’s
personality.
 Of the details of his life, and of his life-work, others have spoken in
the amplest terms. I shall, in this place, content myself with placing on
the record my own remembrance and estimate of the man as he was
known to me. Mr. Grady became a writer for the press when but little
more than a boy, and during the darkest days of the Reconstruction
period. There was in those days but a single political issue for the South.
Our hand was in the lion’s mouth, and we could do nothing, hope for
nothing, until we got it out. The young Georgian was ardent, impetuous,
the son of a father slain in battle, the offspring of a section, the child of a
province; yet he rose to the situation with uncommon faculties of
courage and perception; caught the spirit of the struggle against reaction
with perfect reach; and threw himself into the liberal and progressive
movements of the time with the genius of a man born for both oratory
and affairs. At first, his sphere of work was confined to the newspapers
of the South. But, not unreasonably or unnaturally, he wished a wider
field of duty, and went East, carrying letters in which he was commended
in terms which might have seemed extravagant then, but which he more
than vindicated. His final settlement in the capital of his native State, and
in a position where he could speak directly and responsibly, gave him the
opportunity he had sought to make a name and fame for himself, and an
audience of his own. Here he carried the policy with which he had early
identified himself to its finest conclusions; coming at once to the front as
a champion of a free South and a united country, second to none in
efficiency, equaled by none in eloquence.
He was eager and aspiring, and, in the heedlessness of youth, with its
aggressive ambitions, may not have been at all times discriminating and
considerate in the objects of his attacks; but he was generous to a fault,
and, as he advanced upon the highway, he broadened with it and to it,
and, if he had lived, would have realized the fullest measure of his own
promise and the hopes of his friends. The scales of error, when error he
felt he had committed, were fast falling from his eyes, and he was frank
to own his changed, or changing, view. The vista of the way ahead was
opening before him with its far perspective clear to his mental sight. He
had just delivered an utterance of exceeding weight and value, winning
universal applause, and was coming home to be welcomed by his people
with open arms, when the Messenger of Death summoned him to his
God. The tidings of the fatal termination of his disorder, so startling in
their suddenness and unexpectedness, added to the last scene of all a
feature of dramatic interest.
 For my own part, I can truly say that I was from the first and always
proud of him, hailed him as a young disciple who had surpassed his
elders in learning and power, recognized in him a master voice and soul,
followed his career with admiring interest, and recorded his triumphs
with ever-increasing sympathy and appreciation. We had broken a lance
or two between us; but there had been no lick below the belt, and no hurt
which was other than skin-deep, and during considerably more than a
year before his death a most cordial and unreserved correspondence had
passed between us. The telegram which brought the fatal news was a
grievous shock to me, for it told me that I had lost a good friend, and the
cause of truth a great advocate. It is with a melancholy satisfaction that I
indite these lines, thankful for the opportunity afforded me to do so by
the kindness of his associates and family. Such spirits are not of a
generation, but of an epoch; and it will be long before the South will find
one to take the place made conspicuously vacant by his absence.
