Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: Camps typically have a medical director who has developed set protocols for nursing care but is not directly involved in the day-to-day care of the children.
Rationale 2: Nurses typically work with set protocols determined by the camp medical director.
Rationale 3: The camp nurse will work as a nurse and provide more care than that available from an EMT.

Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale:

1. Ways to enhance cultural skill include learning a prevalent language or learning how to recognize health-manifesting skin color variations in different races.
2. Campinha-Bacote's theory of cultural competence sees the health care professional in a state of ever-increasing cultural competence. One begins by gaining cultural awareness or by gaining an effective and cognitive self-awareness of personal worldview biases, beliefs, and so on.
3. Daily interactions with clients from diverse backgrounds allow the nurse to appreciate the uniqueness of individuals from varying backgrounds.
4. Another early step, acquiring cultural knowledge includes studying information about the beliefs, biological variations, and favored treatments of specific cultural groups.

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.
