Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Including staff at all levels of an organization in planning and projects demonstrates respect for the intelligence and creativity of the individual. Requiring advanced education for any advancement limits those with barriers to attending additional schooling; advancement should be available in a variety of ways to show the value of the individual. Committees that only consist of upper management cause a feeling of disconnect between staff and administration. Scheduling meetings at the same time does not consider those who work shifts and either have to come in on their day off or must disrupt sleep to attend.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Decisions related to practice are the responsibility of the licensing body, or State Board of Nursing, who is charged with protecting the public. The hospital does not determine who is eligible for a professional license. The National League for Nursing is active in nursing education standards. The American Nurses Association helps develop standards of care and is politically active, but it does not enforce standards for individuals.
