Answer to Question 1

Answer: 1, 2, 4
Explanation: The ANA advances the nursing profession by fostering high standards of nursing practice. The APNA is the only professional nursing organization that focuses on all levels of psychiatric nursing. The American Psychiatric Association is an organization of psychiatrists, not nurses. The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association International provides approved nursing diagnoses. The American Psychological Association is an organization of psychologists.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 3
Explanation: Taking a course does not focus on collaborative efforts. Although nurse-mentoring is a leadership activity, it does not necessarily contribute to collaboration. Leading an interdisciplinary team demonstrates both leadership and collaboration. Volunteering for extra shifts does not comply with the IOM recommendation.
