Answer to Question 1

D
According to the ANA (Joint Statement on Delegation, ANA and National Council of State Boards of Nursing NCSBN, 2005), supervision is the active process of directing, guiding, and influencing the outcome of an individual's performance of an activity. The supervisory nurse provides clear direction and information to staff concerning what tasks are to be accomplished, for what patients, at what time, and how the tasks are to be done.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, D
Some ways that nurses can be involved at the organizational power level are: get involved beyond direct patient care, volunteer for committees, share appropriate knowledge with others who value it and will use it effectively, and be involved politically with health care at the local, state, and national levels.
