• Conflict Management Strategies: Identify the problem – State it in objective terms,
minimizing emotional overlay.
• Discuss possible solutions – Brainstorming solutions as a group may stimulate new
solutions to old problems. Encourage individuals to "think outside the box. "Analyze
identified solutions – The potential pros and cons of each possible solution should be
discussed in an attempt to narrow down the number of viable solutions. Select a solution
– Based on this analysis, select a solution for implementation. Implement the selected
solution – A procedure and timeline for implementation should accompany the
implementation of the selected solution. Evaluate the solution's ability to resolve the
original problem – The outcomes surrounding the new solution should be evaluated
according to the predetermined timeline. The solution should be given adequate time to
become established as a new routine before it is evaluated. If the solution is deemed
unsuccessful, the problem-solving process will need to be reinstituted and the problem
discussed again.
Upon admission to a healthcare facility, what are the nurse’s responsibilities regarding a living

• Providing written information regarding advance directives
• Documenting the client’s advance directives status
