Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

At the institutional level, accountability is reflected in the statement of philosophy and objectives of the nursing department and nursing units. At the individual or client level, accountability is reflected in the nurse's ethical integrity. At the professional level, accountability is reflected in standards of practice. At the societal level, it is reflected in legislated nurse practice acts.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Authority is the official power given by the organization to direct the work of others. Accountability is the ability and willingness to assume responsibility. Personal influence is a type of power that comes from within and is associated with leaders, not managers.
