Answer to Question 1

C
Further teaching is needed if the students responded lack of understanding of clinical principles. All
new graduates should have a firm understanding of basic clinical principles and be willing to ask for
assistance for clarification of areas in which they are unsure. The new nurse graduates tendency to
underdelegate is usually related to fear or resentment on the part of more experienced nurses, the need
for approval or validation by completing all of their assigned duties without assistance, or they may be
unsure of the scope of their duties or what they are allowed to do (such as ask for help).

Answer to Question 2

C
While state boards of nursing operate under the Nurse Practice Act, they themselves are not the legal
authority of such. The Joint Commission provides guidelines and standards for safe nursing practice
according to evidence-based practice guidelines, and they do have the capacity to accredit health
subscribed care facilities although they are not the legal authority for nurse practice. NCLEX is not the
legal authority for nursing actions.
