Answer to Question 1

1,2,4,5
Rationale: The role the nurse in the system integration efforts should include the formation and maintenance of the electronic health record; ensuring that data will be collected in only one system and shared among all other systems requiring it (eliminates redundant efforts while ensuring data integrity); identifying and defining data elements; and assuring the quality of data. Developing archetypes and creating communications standards would not be appropriate for nurses.

Answer to Question 2

Feedback
1 The focus of a family meeting is listening to the family, rather than convincing them to follow the health-care team directions. Sharing an exchange of information will be a way build consensus.
2 Sharing family beliefs and understandings is a purpose of a family meeting.
3 The nurse's efficiency may be an outcome of the family meeting, but it is not a purpose.
4 Resolving prior conflicts may not be the best use of a family meeting at this time when there are current concerns.
