Sounds like a specific questions from a specific textbook.

Do they think you have time to play guessing games?

Clear, concise, comprehensive? Those are the only "c's" related to charting I can come up with.

I can understand quizzing on the 5 rights of drug admin, but charting? Come on!

I know clear and concise are correct. Comprehensive sounds like it too. I just can't remember beyond the first too.

My guesses:

Three C's -> Clear, Concise, Comprehensive

Six Char. -> clear, concise, comprenhensive, prompt, legible, and accurate.

But those are just guesses......

We are taught 8 rules now, here in Australia...

Clear, concise and comprehensive would be the best bet, i reckon.

Have you asked the person that asked you? Would be interesting to hear the 'correct' answer.
