Answer to Question 1

A
Precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance are the five phases of change. Postmaintenance, procrastination, and engagement are not included in the five stages of change.

Answer to Question 2

C
An acute asthma attack is a disruption in oxygen and must be addressed first. According to Maslow, meet the patient's physiological needs such as oxygen, food, water, sleep, and elimination first. After meeting the physiological needs, meet the patient's higher-level needs of safety, security, belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. A postoperative patient, a stroke, and a fractured hip are not as important as an acute asthma attack.

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.
