Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Factors associated with professional commitment include a strong belief in and acceptance of the profession's code, role, goals, values, and morals; a willingness to exert considerable personal effort on behalf of the profession; a strong desire to maintain membership in the profession; and a pattern of behaviors congruent with the nurses' professional code of ethics.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A, B, C

Nurses can prevent burnout by using healthy techniques to manage stress. To do so, they must first recognize their stress and become attuned to responses such as feelings of being overwhelmed, fatigue, angry outbursts, physical illness, and increases in coffee drinking, smoking, or use of alcohol or other mood-enhancing substances. Once attuned to stress and their own personal reactions, nurses must identify which situations produce the most pronounced reactions. Suggestions that help reduce stress include planning daily relaxation activities, establishing a regular exercise program, learn to say no, accepting errors and failures as learning experiences, accepting change and limitations, developing collegial support groups, participating in professional organizations, and seeking counseling if needed.
