The human resources (HR) director is planning on attending a career fair and has asked the director of nursing to attend as well. The nursing director replies, "I really don't have time to attend
Do you really need a nurse to go with you?" Which response by the HR director is most appropriate? 1. "Your attendance is necessary to assist me with managing the booth."
2. "Your attendance is necessary to answer specific nursing questions."
3. "I need your assistances in answering questions about our benefit package and nurses wages."
4. "I would like another person from the organization to assist in representation."

Rationale 1: If the reason for having two people attend the event is just to manage a booth, anyone could attend. The HR director should be specific about why it is important for a nurse to attend.
Rationale 2: Specific nursing questions such as nurse-to-client ratios, infection rates, electronic documentation systems, and client safety initiatives are topics with which the HR director has no personal experience.
Rationale 3: Answering questions regarding benefits and wages are part of the HR director's role.
Rationale 4: If having two people attend is just an effort to represent the organization, any employee could attend. The HR director must be specific about why a nurse should attend.
