Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: The role of supervisor is not a legal role, it is an employment role.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Draw an X through the entry and write error, wrong chart, and sign and date. Pulling out the page would also delete other entries that are legal parts of the record. Using white-out or a marker is not acceptable because it obliterates the information.
