Senior leaders must constantly communicate and push information which they defined as:

• A. Situational awareness
• B. Operational risk
• C. Team morale
• D. Resource allocation

Answer: (A)

Maintaining situational awareness through ongoing communication is the main idea. When senior leaders push out information, they’re building a shared picture of what’s happening in the facility—the status of residents, staffing, safety issues, infection control concerns, regulatory changes, and potential upcoming developments. This shared understanding helps everyone anticipate needs, coordinate actions quickly, and make informed decisions to protect resident safety and deliver quality care. It isn’t about focusing on risk in isolation, morale, or how to allocate resources; it’s about ensuring the whole team has the current context and implications so responses are timely and aligned.
