A) An opportunity for staff to experience luxurious surroundings and treatments that foster their self-care
B) An opportunity for staff to "be" rather than "do" and experience respite from normal responsibilities
C) A chance to refocus on the professional standards of nursing and rekindle their passion for nursing practice
D) A chance to reflect on challenges facing the unit and brainstorm solutions in surroundings very different from the work environment
B
Feedback:
A retreat is an opportunity for busy nurses to cease "doing" for a time and focus on "being," and to experience freedom from responsibilities and distractions. Luxury is not a necessity while problem-solving and focusing on professional standards are likely contrary to the spirit of retreat.
