Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Parameters for the delegation of client care tasks by nurses to UAPs are established by each state's board of nursing.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A

Decision making involves shared responsibility for the outcome. The team must follow specific steps of the decision-making process, beginning with a clear definition of the problem. Team decision making must be directed at the objectives of the effort and requires full consideration and respect for various and diverse viewpoints, and often requires guidance and direction from a group leader. Mutual respect occurs when two or more people show or feel honor or esteem toward one another. Trust occurs when an individual is confident in the actions of another individual. Both mutual respect and trust imply mutual process and outcome and may be expressed verbally or nonverbally. Communication is necessary in effective collaboration; it occurs only if the involved parties are committed to understanding each other's professional roles and appreciating each other as individuals.
