One way the board carries out its mission to protect the public is by

  1. guaranteeing job security for nurses

  2. monitoring salary increases

  3. ensuring that each nurse is competent to practice safely

  4. providing free healthcare for nurses

The correct answer is: ensuring that each nurse is competent to practice safely

This option aligns with the board's mission as it focuses on ensuring that nurses are competent to practice safely, which in turn protects the public. Option A and D are not directly related to the board's mission of protecting the public. While monitoring salary increases could potentially indirectly help with job security for nurses, this is not the main mission of the board and does not directly relate to protecting the public.
