Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A major drawback for nursing is that use of computerized documentation systems based on medical code numbers often forces nurses to use classification systems designed to describe medical practice instead of describing nursing assessment and care of clients. With this method of charting, the richness of the nursing care provided often goes undocumented. Ability to aggregate data, improved access to health record, and preset activities that can be coded are advantages of computerized charting.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Although just about every nursing student has seen or used a wireless or cellular telephone, not everyone has used them as an aid to giving client care. There are still hospitals that prohibit nurses from using cell phones, even though studies show these devices can save time, decrease errors, and simplify information retrieval at the point of care. Nursing is just beginning to deal with guidelines. Ethically, you do not use electronic devices in your workplace for personal, nonprofessional use. All information needs to be HIPAA secure.
