A registered nurse is seeking employment at a hospital with magnet status after hearing about the high nurse satisfaction at this hospital. High nursing satisfaction in a hospital with magnet status rating is a result of the utilization of:
1. Professional autonomy.
2. Unlicensed assistive personnel.
3. Charge nurses.
4. Team nursing.
Professional autonomy.
Rationale: Professional autonomy allows nurses to have control over their individual nursing practice. The use of unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) calls for the delegation of nursing practice based on the skill and experience of the UAP. Charge nurses may have more autonomy than the bedside nurse when functional nursing or team nursing care delivery models are utilized. Charge nurses in the case method are more attuned to day-to-day operations of the units and providing consultation for the bedside nurse. Delegation of tasks is also part of the RN role in the team nursing model and can lead to dissatisfaction if communication skills are not effective among the team members.
