Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: The EHR provides the database needed to support research and evidence-based practice and has the potential to change and shape care practices.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: The correct answer is the equipment used for training is the same used in the clinical setting.. Ideally, individual user training should be done on the same equipment that will be seen in the clinical setting. If the live system is used, data may be altered and confidentiality of client information may be compromised.
