A nurse is planning care for a client who has anorexia nervosa. The nurse should make which of the following client goals the priority?

A. Allow LPNs and CNAs to perform tasks beyond their scope of practice: This approach can lead to legal and ethical issues, compromising patient safety and putting staff at risk for disciplinary action.
B. Establish a rewards program to recognize achievements of the staff: Implementing a rewards program acknowledges and values the hard work of the staff, boosting morale and job satisfaction, which can lead to decreased turnover rates.
C. Hire additional staff so individual workloads are lessened: While this can reduce stress and burnout, it might not directly address the need for recognition and motivation, which are crucial for job satisfaction.
D. Improve the working conditions of the unit by investing in ergonomic chairs: Enhancing physical work conditions is beneficial, but it does not address the core issues of motivation and recognition that significantly impact job satisfaction.

A. Progress through the workday without a plan: Working without a plan can lead to inefficient use of time and missed priorities, making it difficult to manage tasks effectively.
B. Put off important tasks until they feel motivated to start them: Procrastination can lead to delays and increased stress, affecting overall productivity and management effectiveness.
C. Only accept projects that exactly fit their specifications: Limiting acceptance to projects that fit exactly within specifications may hinder flexibility and the ability to address broader needs or priorities.
D. Decline requests that are not in alignment with their priorities: Prioritizing tasks and declining requests that do not align with current priorities helps manage time effectively and ensures focus on the most important tasks.
