Answer to Question 1

A
Organizational accountability for delegation includes a number of different factors which show what and how responsibility for care has been delegated by nurses. Some of these include: 1) developing organizational policies on delegation with the active participation of all nurses (not limited participation of all nurses); 2) providing sufficient resources including staffing with appropriate staff mix; 3) providing opportunity for continuous staff development; 4) creating an environment conducive to teamwork, collaboration, and patient-centered care; and 5) ensuring that the RN has access to competency information for staff to whom the RN is delegating care.

Answer to Question 2

B
According to Vroom's Theory of Motivation, Force describes the amount of effort one will exert to
reach one's goal. Valence speaks to the level of attractiveness or unattractiveness of the goal.
Expectancy is the perceived possibility that the goal will be achieved. Vroom's Theory of Motivation
can be demonstrated in the form of an equation: Force = Valence  Expectancy (Vroom, 1964). The
theory proposes that this equation can help to predict the motivation, or force, of an individual as
described by Vroom.
