Answer to Question 1

C
Time management is defined as the accomplishment of specified activities during the time available. It is the process of managing the things an individual does with his or her available time. At its core, time management is self-management.

Answer to Question 2

D
As technology improves, informatics must be integrated with budget and personnel as a critical resource element. Basing practice on evidence-based care can assist in making solid decisions about resources and in leading and encouraging staff toward positive changes in patient out-comes. EHRs, for example, are expected to enhance coordination of care, improve health out-comes, and increase accuracy of diagnoses.
