SCENE 1: A nursing student, Caitlyn, is working with her preceptor, Brenda. Brenda, an experienced nurse, appears to be fumbling with her assessment and acting a bit odd. She then accidentally pulls out the patient’s IV without noticing. When Caitlyn brings it up, Brenda blames Caitlyn for pulling it out. Caitlyn approaches her nursing instructor, Ms. Simpson, with concerns that her preceptor might be impaired.

SCENE 2: Caitlyn and Ms. Simpson are discussing Caitlyn’s concerns in a small conference room. Ms. Simpson asks Caitlyn to provide as much information as possible and then inquires what Caitlyn’s first immediate action should be. Caitlyn agrees to report the nurse to the nurse manager, with Ms. Simpson’s support. However, Caitlyn, who would like to get a job at the hospital after graduation, is concerned about coming off as a tattletale and possibly losing a job opportunity.

5. Caitlyn is worried about reporting because she may want to seek a job at the hospital and does not want to be seen as a “tattletale”. How do you feel about Ms. Simpson’s response? Have you had similar concerns in your clinical setting (when you felt something was incorrect but didn’t want to “rock the boat” due to the possibility of future employment at the facility)?

6. At the end of the scene, Ms. Simpson asks Caitlyn if she is ready to report to the nurse manager. In what other ways could Ms. Simpson have helped Caitlyn prepare for giving the report?

7. How would you report the concerning behaviors to the nurse manager? What specifically would you say?

SCENE 3: The nurse manager enters the room of one of Brenda’s patients to find Brenda draped over the patient and asleep. The nurse manager awakens Brenda and tells her that she will need to be escorted by security down to the Emergency Department.

8. Why do you think the nurse manager stated that security was coming to take Brenda to the Emergency Department? Do you feel that this was appropriate?

9. What are the next steps that the nurse manager and facility will take in regard to Brenda’s chemical impairment?

10. What guidelines do you think maybe put in place when Brenda returns to work? What do you think will happen if Brenda violates those guidelines?

The Scenario:

Kalia recently accepted the chief executive officer (CEO) position at a steadily declining transitional care organization. After meeting with the board of trustees, she was eager to demonstrate how her vision would change the direction of the failing company. Her hope was to discover allies within the company that could help make it easier to put her plan for the company into action. However, she soon found that her formal authority as CEO had been severely undermined by the pervious CEO, whose practice had been to distribute power within the organization, but had poorly managed those to whom he gave power. During Kalia’s first week, she arranged her schedule so that she could meet with administrative staff as soon as possible. During the meeting, Kalia requested budget information for each manager. None of the administrative staff were able to obtain the information for Kalia. They told her that company financial information was considered classified and could only be accessed through Manny, the chief financial officer (CFO) – the managers were not able to monitor their own budgets. One individual volunteered that sometimes the CFO’s administrative assistant would allow people to review reports, if the CFO was out and “she liked you.” After the meeting, Kalia went to Dominic, the chief information officer (CIO), to see if a centralized shared network could be created so employees could access important and sensitive data necessary for staff to make business decisions. Dominic informed her that the system was complicated, and that he was the only one familiar with how it was set up. He also told her that he would be going on paternity leave, and no one else could be trusted with the system. Therefore, a project like that could not begin until he returned. Dominic suggested that, in the meantime, Kalia begin the request with Manny, the CFO, as he would need to approve the budget for the project because it would be costly. Kalia walked to Manny’s office. As soon as she walked in, Manny said, “I heard you don’t think that the way I handle finances is acceptable. I have 26 years of experience, plus dual master’s degrees in accounting and finance. I am surprised that a young woman starting out would consider herself an expert. Kalia was surprised by Manny’s comments, and she was equally surprised to turn and see two of her administrative staff sitting on the couch in Manny’s office. Uncertain of how to respond, Kalia turned and walked back to her office. In her office, Kalia sat down at her desk and put her face in her hands. She was now questioning everything she thought she knew about the company, being the CEO, and why she was hired.
