Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback
A A 5-year-old child is not developmentally advanced enough to feel spiritual
distress.
B The main social system for a 5-year-old child is the family, who should be
allowed liberal visitation.
C Children in isolation need extra attention to avoid boredom.
D Sleep deprivation may occur during hospitalization but is not specific to
isolation.

Answer to Question 2

H. influenzae type B (HIB) vaccine
The nurse should encourage parents of young children to have their children immunized
against H. influenzae to decrease the risk for contracting epiglottitis. Prophylaxis with
rifampin is given to underimmunized contacts or family members younger than 4 years old
and to any child contact who is immune depressed.

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.
