Which would be a most effective way for nursing to improve the power of its image?
1. Becoming politically active
2. Behaving professionally at all times
3. Motivating others to become nurses
4. Encouraging clients to speak positively

Explanation: 1. Those in the nursing profession must act and speak professionally at all times in all places.
This would increase nursing?s power image. Becoming politically active, motivating others to
become nurses (while good for the shortage!), and encouraging others to speak positively
would not necessarily promote a power image. Nurses must do it for themselves.
