Answer to Question 1

Answer:1
Rationale: The client record should include the date and time of entry,nursing care provided,assessments,an objective report of the client's physiologic response,exact quotes,and the nurse's signature and title.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Rationale: Critical clinical pathways are interdisciplinary documents provided by a
hospital to suggest ideal sequencing and timing of events and interventions for
specific diseases to improve efficiency of care and enhance recovery. This
pathway serves as a model outlining the typical hospital stay for individuals with
specified conditions. Healthy People 2010 contains objectives set by the US
government to improve the health and reduce the incidence of death in the
twenty-first century. Child mortality statistics can be compared with those from
other decades for the evaluation of achievement toward healthcare goals. National
clinical practice guidelines promote uniformity in care for specific disease
conditions by suggesting expected outcomes from specific interventions.
