A) The new nurse can demonstrate commitment by showing up for all shifts in a timely fashion. It should not be necessary for the new nurse to question every procedure, as the new nurse has some clinical experience. Joining the ANA is a commitment, but is not relevant to this question. Clinical competence develops over time, and the new nurse is not likely to exhibit competence yet; showing up on time is a better predictor of the nurse's commitment.
