Answer to Question 1

A
Nurses can be politically involved by becoming a member of and supporting their professional
organization. Becoming a lobbyist is not for the majority. More government control is not supporting
the advancement of nursing service. Supporting physicians to direct health care policy does not focus
on the needs of nursing as a profession.
