Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The process of clinical decision making is lengthy and confidence in clinical judgment should not be expected before 6 to 12 months. 4 to 6 months is the time frame for learning practice norms. 12 to 18 months is the time frame for consolidation of relationships. 18 to 24 months is the time frame for seeking challenges.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Training and education are the best methods for ensuring competency. The other options do not address competency.
