Sarah's team is under pressure. Some statements about her situation are accurate. Some are not. Can you tell the difference?

Three weeks after the CQC inspection.

The inspection is over, but the pressure has not lifted. Referrals are still rising. The 24-hour triage target is now in place. Two nurses have raised concerns about fatigue, and Sarah has noticed that documentation quality is beginning to slip. She is monitoring the situation closely — but she is not sure she is doing enough, or doing the right things.

Below are eight statements about workload monitoring, burnout, and proactive leadership in Sarah's context. Read each one carefully and decide: is it true or false?


This activity tests your understanding of:

✓  Monitoring and balancing workload

✓  The legal duty of reasonable workload

✓  Proactive vs reactive leadership

✓  Signs of excessive workload and early burnout

Eight statements. Some true. Some false. All connected to Sarah's real situation.

When you have finished, check your score and revisit any statements where you were unsure. If you scored below six out of eight, we recommend returning to the Section 2 content before moving on.
