Answer to Question 1

B
Professional growth opportunities pertain to occasions where an individual can enhance their current
professional knowledge base and skill set. The use of a clinical ladder can assist a nurse in enhancing
their professional and career goals by providing a framework for promotion in a specific track within a
clinical, educational, or managerial focus. 360-degree feedback (not 365 degree) and patient feedback
provide information regarding a nurse's immediate performance but do not necessarily help to enhance
the long-term professional growth in a significant manner. Fishbone diagrams are often used in quality
improvement initiatives.

Answer to Question 2

C
ARKO is an acronym that can be used by new graduates to assist with review preparation for the NCLEX-RN exam. ARKO stands for: 1) A = action (Is the question stem asking you to take action or take no action?); 2) R = reword (reword the question); 3) K= key words (identify key words in the question stem); and 4) O = options (eliminate options).
