Question 1 of 5
A new nurse employed at a community hospital is reading the organization's mission statement. The new nurse understands that this statement is written for which purpose?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is '
To outline what the organization plans to accomplish.' A mission statement expresses the purpose or reason for an organization's existence, outlining what it aims to achieve. It often includes statements of philosophy, purpose, and goals. This statement serves as a benchmark for evaluating the organization's performance. The mission statement is not meant to identify policies and procedures (
Choice
B) or describe employee benefits (
Choice
C).
Choice B specifies the administrative guidelines and protocols of the organization, while
Choice C pertains to the perks available to employees.
Choice D is incorrect as the rules of the organization that employees must follow are usually detailed in employee handbooks or codes of conduct, not in the mission statement.
