Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
Records provide complete information about the client, resolve legal issues in malpractice suits, and provide information for education and research. Records are not available for anyone to view as that is a violation of client privacy. Depending on the record being used, assessment docu-mentation may or may not be easy.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The central index system is a data filing system that indicates the services requested, services of-fered, active and inactive clients of the agency, and a profile of the agency's clients. Information about the number of clients seen daily, the immunizations given, home visits made daily, and transportation and mileage can be found in the provider service record. The clinical record is the client health record. The financial record is from the agency and contains information about the salaries, overhead, and transportation costs.
