Answer to Question 1

ANS: A

Feedback
A Scientific investigation promotes accountability, a hallmark of the nursing profession and a fundamental concept of the ANA's Code for Nurses.
B Standards of care are defined by ANA, as well as specialty nursing organizations. The Code for Nurses states that nurses should conform to standards, but standards per se are not part of the Code.
C Legal scope of practice is defined by each state's Nurse Practice Act and elaborated in its rules and regulations.
D The ANA Code applies to nursing practice in general, not advanced practice.
