Answer to Question 1

o Shared governance: An organizational structure in which decision making is shared with staff
o Program management: A way of organizing health care organizations by groups of patients rather than by departments with members of one professional group
o Interprofessional teams: Teams that work together to assess the client's needs and care is provided by the various professional(s) whose expertise will benefit the patient

Answer to Question 2

B
The mentor helps the novice develop skills and career direction. A mentor may introduce the younger

nurse in a workplace ethical dilemma. An experienced preceptor may serve as an informal mentor in
some situations.
