Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The nurse plays a key role in establishing a productive working relationship with an adolescent. Appropriate levels of privacy will demonstrate trust and the increased need for independence in the adolescent and may provide an opportunity for the adolescent to verbalize questions/concerns. Emotional development in an adolescent occurs on an individual basis. The nurse must exercise care in offering confidentiality in the event that information needs to be divulged to other healthcare providers. Adolescents may require help with decision making.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The IV route allows for the greatest titration and bioavailability of the medication. The other routes are less exact.

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.
