Answer to Question 1

C
A nursing minimum data set consists of three categories divided into 16 elements and are grouped by demographics, service, and nursing care.

Answer to Question 2

A
The discharge summary is a concise outline of what happened to a client from admission through discharge. It should include information about the client's status on admission and at discharge; a summary of client care, intervention and education outcomes; client problems that either were resolved or continue; and instructions about medications, diet, activity, treatments, and follow-up.
