Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
Accountability refers to individuals being responsible for their actions. It means that a nurse ac-cepts the commitment to provide excellent client care and the responsibility for the outcomes of the actions in providing that care. Reassessing an abnormally high BP is the best example of nursing accountability because it shows the nurse being responsible for the accuracy of the as-sessment. The remaining options better reflect nursing responsibility.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
One of the limitations to the model is that the team leader does not spend a large amount of time with clients. Depending on the mix of staff members, this sometimes means that clients see an RN infrequently. Risks exist if an RN is unable to make necessary client assessments and be in-volved in important clinical decision making. The remaining options refer to less frequent prob-lems inherent to the team nursing model.
