Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Sigma Theta Tau is the international honor society for nursing. The American Nurses Association is the national professional organization representing all registered nurses in the United States. The National League for Nursing promotes excellence in nursing education, but is not an honor society. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing is the national voice for baccalaureate and higher degree nursing education programs in the United States.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Client advocacy is focused on respect of the client's decision-making and enhancement of the client's autonomy. The nurse should assist the client with decision-making, but not influence the decision. The nurse is not responsible for the client's health; that is the client's responsibility. The nurse is not responsible for correcting the client's weaknesses.
