Answer to Question 1

Answer:1
Rationale: A breach of privacy would have been committed in this situation, because it violates the right to privacy of this family. The right to privacy is the right of a person to keep his or her person and property free from public scrutiny (even other family members).Negligence and malpractice are punishable legal offenses and are more serious. A breach of ethics would not apply to this situation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:2,3,4
Rationale: When parents stayed in the hospital with their child,research found that the child experienced shortened recovery periods,exhibited decreased anxiety during procedures,required less analgesic medication for pain relief after surgery,was quieter,had improved coping,and was happier. These research studies did not investigate the child's depth of sleep or sleep patterns.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
