Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Fewer errors occur with this system because there are no legibility issues and the entry is sent di-rectly to pharmacy. The other options are not part of the process of the system.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
Options A, B, C, D, and E are employees who make up a group or team caring for the same pa-tient in one way or another. The admission clerk is usually not involved in the care of the patient.
