Nurse manager on an Oncology unit

Janice Menovich, a nurse manager on an oncology unit, is trying to increase the skill mix from 50% registered nurses (RNs) to 62% RNs. Nurse Menovich believes that it is essential to have a high percentage of RNs because of the chemotherapy that they are required to administer. Jessie Salee, a nurse manager on a surgical unit, is also trying to increase the skill mix of RNs from 50% to 55%.

Nurse Salee believes that it is important because of the increasing condition severity levels and decreasing time in the recovery room, especially on the 3-11 PM shift.

The vice-president of nursing has announced that there will be a small increase in RN positions (approximately five new RN positions) and that she would like proposals from the managers on how to allocate the scarce resources in the best possible way. Nurse Menovich decides that she needs all five positions and writes up a detailed report, which she gives to the vice president of nursing. She makes an appointment with the vice president of nursing to follow up on the memorandum.

The vice president of nursing asks Nurse Menovich whether she can negotiate for fewer RN positions so that Nurse Salee’s unit also can be allocated new positions. Nurse Menovich states that she can prove why she needs the RN positions more than Nurse Salee and that she will do what it takes to obtain the positions for her unit.

  1. Which type of conflict is described in this case study?

 

  1. What conflict management strategy or mode is Nurse Menovich using to get all of the RN positions?

 

  1. What conflict resolution strategies could Nurse Salee use to engage in a win-win situation?

A progress note using the SOAPIER format

Read the case study. Write a progress note using the SOAPIER format. SJ came to the ER you are working at with complaint of severe pain in his left leg. When you asked him what happened, he said “I was sled riding in the snow with some friends. I lost control and went over the hill and hit a tree. My leg is killing me.”

You do an assessment. SJ is alert and oriented to person, place and time. He has no known allergies (NKA).Skin is warm and dry. Color appropriate for ethnicity. Neuro checks are normal. Denies hitting his head. Has full range of motion in both arm and right leg. EMS has a stabilizing splint on his right leg. Bilateral toes are pink and capillary refill is quick to return. Distal extremities pulses are strong and bounding. Bowel sounds are positive in all four quadrants.

Vital signs are 97.8 orally. Heart rate is 110 and regular. Heart sounds S1 and S2 heard. Respirations are 24 and unlabored. Lung sounds are clear. Blood pressure is 172/96. He asks “Please can you give me something for pain?” Rates his pain a “10” on the 0 -10 numeric scale. You give him 4 milligrams of morphine IV as prescribed by the physician.

The xray results come back and he has a complete fractured tibia. He is admitted to the medical/surgical unit and scheduled for surgery tomorrow. Report given to RN “Mary” on the medical/surgical unit.
