Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 5
Power is used for negative purposes when it is used without regard for the larger group or for personal gain. There is no caring in the use of this power.

Joining a nursing organization will help to empower the new graduate by providing learning and growth opportunities. Learning increases the feeling of empowerment. Having a mentor who is experienced and works well with the LPN will empower the new graduate.
