c. Incorrect: This is not a description of politics in the workplace.
d. Incorrect: This is not a description of politics in the workplace.

Answer to Question 2

C
Setting priorities is a skill that nurses use on a daily basis to ensure safe, quality, and timely patient care. Some techniques that nurses use to set priorities include: 1) apply the nursing process; 2) constantly reassess patient care needs; and 3) constantly re-prioritize patient care needs. While some duties can be delegated to other members of the health care team, not all duties can be delegated.
