Answer to Question 1

A, D
Community health nurses expanded nursing services to new areas, including school, industrial, tuberculosis, and infant welfare nursing. They combined their training and knowledge to educate the public and served as the backbone for the Maternal and Infant Act of 1921.
Community health nurses combined their training and knowledge to bring education to the public to promote health and well-being.
Private duty nurses had always been the mainstay of nursing work; these nurses worked semi-autonomously in patients' homes.
A system for determining compliance was not a part of the developing health care system in this country.
The use of community health nursing increased because of concern with the public's health, not the patient's ability to pay.

Answer to Question 2

C
Committee chairpersons develop the calendar for discussion of issues; this would be the appropriate avenue for this idea.
The party whip is the minority leader and does not set the agenda.
A lobbyist might be very helpful in getting bills passed, but the lobbyist would most likely not have any influence on the timing of debate.
Public discussion is not the same thing as legislative debate.

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.
