A nurse who works in oncology questions the need to attend an education session on aneuploidy. What rationale would the nurse manager provide?
1. The hospital is offering cross-training to nurses so that they have more job security.
2. Accreditation agencies require cross-specialty education for all nurses.
3. Aneuploidy, transcription, and tumor suppression are related.
4. Many more newborns are being born with precancerous conditions.
3
Rationale 1: Job security is not the primary rationale for this education.
Rationale 2: This is not a valid rationale for the education requirement.
Rationale 3: Certain transcription factors appear to be necessary to ensure that chromosomal variations such as aneuploidy do not occur. These factors may also be associated with tumor suppression.
Rationale 4: The number of newborns with precancerous conditions is not the most important rationale for this nurse's attendance.
