Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, E
Security, expensive staff training, and learning new terminology are all problems of electronic charting. Legibility and easy retrieval are advantages.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D
The documentation of the initiation of an incident report should not be included in the nurse's notes. Nurse's notes are part of the legal medical record; the incident report is not. To note that an incident report was initiated is a red flag that a problem has occurred.
