Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6
Nursing documentation must be accurate, comprehensive, and flexible enough to retrieve critical data, maintain continuity of care, track client outcomes, and reflect current standards of nursing practice. Nursing documentation should include nursing observations, not nursing opinions.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
The problem is reflected by a nursing diagnosis while the interventions are related to nursing ac-tions directed toward minimizing or eliminating the problem. The evaluation is the client's objec-tive or subjective response to the nursing intervention.
