A nurse is assisting with the orientation of a newly licensed nurse. The newly licensed nurse is having trouble focusing and has difficulty completing care for his assigned clients. Which of the following interventions is appropriate?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
The correct answer is B: Recommend that he take time to plan at the beginning of his shift. This intervention is appropriate because it helps the newly licensed nurse prioritize his tasks and organize his workflow, which can improve focus and efficiency. By taking time to plan, he can identify the most critical tasks and allocate time accordingly.
Choice A is incorrect because completing less time-consuming tasks first may not address the root cause of his difficulty focusing. Choice C is incorrect as providing care for his clients while he takes a break does not promote independence and may not address the underlying issue. Choice D is incorrect as asking others to take over his tasks does not help him develop his skills in time management and organization.
