Answer to Question 1

Answer: 2
Rationale: Nursing as a profession has a social responsibility toward the health and illness of individuals, families, and communities. Other industries work with multiple levels of management and have limited resources. Nursing management is different, since caring for clients is a 24/7/365 responsibility, but the legal and ethical responsibility as a whole is more important.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 3
Rationale: The front line manager is the charge nurse. The charge nurse is unique to the health care setting, is in charge shift by shift, and is accountable to the first-level manager. The first-, middle-, and upper-level managers are accountable for quality care 24 hours a day.
