Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Voluntary standards are developed and implemented by the nursing profession itself. They are not mandatory but are used as guidelines for peer review. The organizations that set standards are guided by society's need for nursing and by the public's expectations of nursing.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Civil laws regulate the practice of nursing. A law is a standard or rule of conduct established and enforced by the government, chiefly to protect the rights of the public. Private law, also called civil law, regulates relationships among people and includes laws related to the practice of nursing.
