Answer to Question 2

1, 4
Explanation: 1. It is illegal to change nursing notes. The nurse can amend nursing notes by adding an
additional note and making a line through the incorrect note, but cannot change notes. Falsely
reporting a colleague is also an exception. The remaining answers are not exceptions because
they are correct actions.
