Answer to Question 1

All the options are reasonable interventions with a client with acute mania, but option D directly
relates to the outcome of energy conservation by providing a subdued environment that will decrease
stimulation and help balance activity and rest.

Answer to Question 2

the acute stage of the illness. Prodromal symptoms, the symptoms that are present before the
development of florid symptoms, are listed in option 1.

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.
