Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Nurses transform data into information; they use informatics to manage and communicate data. Informatics assists them in storing clinical data, translating clinical data into information, and utilizing the data as part of an interdisciplinary team. All computer technology, including programming and maintaining computer equipment, is not within the scope of nursing informatics. The medical record refers to paper copies of patient care information, medical records may also be computerized and may be a component of the job responsibilities of the informatics nurse, but is not the definition of nursing informatics. The internet provides sources of information that nurses may use but is not a descriptor of nursing informatics.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

Change can be positive or negative, planned or unplanned. Change is a part of everyone's life; it is the way in which people grow, develop, and adapt. Change is inevitable and can not be prevented. Change can be spontaneous or unplanned, or also be a planned event. Change can be seen as both positive and negative depending on the event that the change is related to. With careful planning, communication, and ensuring employee confidence, change can be managed.
