Answer to Question 1

C
The democratic leader bases decisions on consensus, or mutual agreement, within the group. This leader delegates duties according to the strengths within the team, with each team member solicited for input.

Answer to Question 2

T
The standard of care dictates that patient teaching include information regarding both the disord-er and the treatment plan. The legal and ethical consequences of not providing and/or document-ing that learning has occurred may place the RN in a position of being accused of inability to provide safe patient care.

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.
