Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: Baseline assessments assist the nurse to develop an individualized plan of care specifically aimed at that client's needs. Clients' care can be scheduled with consideration to clients' preferences, but is also determined by client needs. Cause of health problems and medications are the provider's responsibility.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale 1: An incident report is completed by the person who discovers the incident, which does not indicate responsibility for the event. The nursing supervisor should be informed of the incident report and error, but will not be responsible for completing the incident report.
