Answer to Question 1

C
This information results in recording the interventions that are implemented to meet the patient's needs. Many charting entries include doctor's visits, presence of family, or interventions by other departments. Patient response to some interventions is not always positive.

Accutane has many side effects and can produce birth defects. Effective contraception is necessary during treatment and 1 month after the 20 weeks it is to be taken.
