C
Planning, organizing, and keeping the group on task are critical in ensuring that meetings are productive and that time is managed well.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, E
The RN acknowledges that there is a relational aspect to delegation and that communication is culturally appropriate and the person receiving the communication is treated respectfully. Chief nursing officers are accountable for establishing systems to assess, monitor, verify, and commu-nicate ongoing competence requirements in areas related to delegation, for both RNs and dele-gatees. RNs monitor organizational policies, procedures, and position descriptions to ensure that the nurse practice act is not violated, working with the state board of nursing if necessary.
