Describe your long-term decisions and your rationale for making these decisions.

Step 1 Read the scenario.

You are one year into your first nurse manager position, and you have noticed that your staffing is way below average.

You also hear patient complaints that staff members are not anticipating their needs. This is affecting your budget, staff morale, and patient outcomes. Additionally, a number of documentation and medication errors have occurred over the last three months, and these mistakes are contributing to poor patient outcomes.
