Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The charge nurse is a role model for the attitude and behavior expected of nursing assistants. Team building requires an environment in which employees feel valued. Politeness, cooperation, respect, and trust provide the foundation on which further team building proceeds.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The idea that motivation is an inner force most accurately explains motivation. Encouragement and money are motivators but do not provide accurate information. Referencing communication does not provide information on motivation.
