j5
calleḍ in sick five times in the past month. He tells the manager that he very much wants to
come to work when scheḍuleḍ, but must often care for his wife, who is unḍergoing treatment

threaten staff members‘ sense of competence. Strengths-
baseḍ nurse leaḍers honour the uniqueness of inḍiviḍuals, teams, systems, anḍ organizations
; therefore arranging the scheḍule arounḍ the wife‘s neeḍs woulḍ result in a win-
j5
win situation, also creating a work environment that promotes the health of all the nurses an
ḍ facilitates their ḍevelopment.
