Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Hardware redundancy is the first line of defense in providing continuous systems availability. It allows operations to continue even when individual components fail. Having copies of software, installing anti-virus software, and having adequate firewall protection are good practices; however, they are not the first line defense.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: The widespread adoption of electronic patient records, CPOE, and other point-of-care technologies that support nursing workflow are expected to help remove barriers to information and evidence-based practice (Simpson, 2006). However, online reports cards cannot be employed to remove barriers to information and evidence-based practice because these documents contain evaluated care data of individual physicians, facilities, health plans, and other care providers, serving as a tool to assist health care consumers to compare quality and other characteristics of providers and health plans.
