Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
The nurse needs to figure out why a promotion has not been offered, and then create an action plan to improve the situation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Mentors should demonstrate a high level of skill and take interest in the graduate's learning needs. So this individual would be a good choice.
