Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Giving an opinion and approving or disapproving responses, moralizing, or implying one's own values is passing judgment. Giving common advice is telling the client what to do. Rejecting is refusing to discuss certain topics with the client. Testing is asking questions that make the client admit to something.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2, 4, 5

The Institute of Medicine has identified physician order entry and clinical information systems as two important priorities in patient care delivery. The goal is to improve care delivery, patient safety, and promote evidenced-based practice. The use of wireless computers and PDAs is aimed at encouraging the use of computerized medical records to improve quality of patient care and improve access to the medical records for care providers. Internet access for patients and electronic transmission of prescriptions has not been identified as current information technology needs for nursing.
