Answer to Question 1

ANS: False

Texting is an easy and efficient method for simple communications such as changing an appointment; however, it is not an appropriate method of communication for discussion of clinical issues, and can potentially compromise the safety and wellbeing of the woman and/or her baby.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C

Text messaging can be an unreliable method of communication, with message transmission delayed at times or messages open to misinterpretation. While women may use texting to contact a midwife, midwives must consider the appropriateness of using text communications and ensure that their communication with women occurs through reliable methods such as telephone. All communication with women should be appropriately documented.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
