A seasoned nurse is a mentor for a new graduate. Which of the standards of professional performance is the seasoned nurse practicing?
1. Collaboration
2. Leadership
3. Collegiality
4. Evaluation
Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: Collegiality describes interaction with and contributions to the professional development of peers and colleagues, which is what a mentoring relationship would involve. Collaboration involves working with the client, the family, and others in the conduct of nursing practice. Leadership provides direction in a professional practice setting, and evaluation involves a comparison between one's own nursing practice and professional practice standards.
