Answer to Question 1

1,2,3,4
Rationale: The progress of wound healing, or lack thereof, is information that needs to be obtained and documented.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The nursing student should begin collecting material for the portfolio when she is approximately halfway through the program, because she must save work samples and writing samples as they become available. Generally, the work done in the first half of the program does not reflect the level of knowledge of a student who is further along in the program.
