Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Caring for homeless women requires sensitivity and creativity. The best action by the nurse is to collaborate with social services to find a shelter that takes new moms and their infants. The other actions are unnecessary and will contribute to the woman's distrust of the health-care system.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Recent research showed that most undocumented Hispanic immigrants in Texas came to find work as their primary reason. This response is best because it offers factual information and is professional in tone. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act does not provide health coverage for undocumented migrants and prohibits them from buying private insurance from the state-sponsored exchanges.

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.
