Answer to Question 1

C
While delegation is not a means of intimidating or isolating the new or experienced nurse, it is a way of providing a means by which patient care can be distributed efficiently, utilizing the most appropriate resources (staff) to enhance desired outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

D
Hansten and Washburn's (2004) three levels of supervision include: 1) unsupervised, 2) initial direction and periodic supervision, and 3) continuous supervision. These levels are based upon the type of task delegated, education, competency, experience, and working relationship of all of the people involved.
