Answer to Question 1

4. In what direction do you wipe after a bowel movement?

Rationale:
The most important teaching to provide females is always to wipe the peri-anal/genital area from front to back. E-coli are the most common micro-organisms responsible for urinary tract infections and can easily be dragged into the urethral orifice by wiping from the anus to the urethra after defecation. Females do have a shorter urethra compared to males and are more susceptible to urinary tract infections for this reason. Although sitting in a soapy bath may increase the risk for vaginal irritations, personal hygiene practices, such as cleansing after a bowel movement, is a priority teaching instruction to include for this client. Urinary tract infections are not associated with families or genetics.

Answer to Question 2

C
Sodium chloride 0.45 is considered a hypotonic solution. Normal saline 0.9 and Ringer's lactate are considered isotonic solutions. Dextrose 5 in normal saline 0.9 is considered a hypertonic solution.

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.
