a. The RNAO’s Nursing Best Practice Guidelines
b. The CNO’s standards of nursing practice
c. Union regulations
d. The CNA’s Code of Ethics for Registered Nurses
Answer:
D
The CNA’s Code of Ethics for Registered Nurses defines principles and establishes ethical standards that guide nursing practice.
Best practice guidelines are guiding principles that lead to the most appropriate courses of action in certain standard practice situations. They include standards that apply to specific clinical prac-tice situations.
Nursing is a self-regulating profession, and it sets its own standards of practice. The College of Nurses of Ontario is responsible for developing the standards for nursing practice in its province.
Unions are responsible for collective bargaining.
