Rationale: Affiliation needs are met by providing for good
interpersonal relationships among staff. Planning a social gathering
is a way of meeting affiliation needs. Reorienting all staff to policies

affiliation needs. Encouraging attendance at continuing education
seminars addresses level 4 needs for recognition, growth, and
responsibility. Offering training in violence prevention addresses
level 2 safety needs.
