A nurse consultant reviews the nursing administration?s appraisal policies. The consultant notes the annual appraisal focuses on general performance

The consultant informs the CNO (chief nurse officer) this type of evaluation does not allow for: 1. Performance related to the job description.
2. Personality issues.
3. The nurse?s ability to deal with stress.
4. Input from peers.

Explanation: 1. A focus on general performance does not cover all aspects of the nurse?s job description.
Personality traits and the ability to manage stress are individual characteristics and may be
positive or negative components of the employee?s appraisal. Input from peers may be helpful
but it is ultimately the evaluator?s assessment that is important.
