3. Which organization is the best source of information when a nurse wishes todetermine
whether an action is within the scope of nursing practice?
A. American Nurses Association (ANA)
B. American Association of Colleges in Nursing (AACN)
C. National League for Nursing (NLN)
D. International Council of Nurses (ICN)

Answer: A

Rationale: The ANA's 2021 Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice defines activities that are specific
and unique to nursing. Standards allow nurses to carry out professional roles, serving as protection for
the nurse, the patient, and the institution where health care is provided. The competencies articulated
in the Standards describe expected levels of performance that integrate knowledge, skills,abilities, and
judgments. Each nurse is accountable for their own quality of practice and is responsible for the use of
these standards to ensure knowledgeable, safe, and comprehensive nursing care. The AACN addresses
educational standards, whilethe NLN promotes and fosters various aspects of nursing. The ICN provides
a venuefor national nursing organizations to collaborate, but does not define standards andscope of
practice.
