Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Refreezing is when the change is integrated and stabilized.
Rationale 2: During the unfreezing stage, the need for change is recognized, driving and restraining forces are identified, alternative solutions are generated, and participants are motivated to change.
Rationale 3: During the second stage, moving, participants agree that the status quo is undesirable and the actual change is planned in detail and implemented.
Rationale 4: Drift is a type of unplanned change in which change occurs without effort on anyone's part.

Rationale 3: A team leader is a different type of management role.
Rationale 4: The preceptor is a person of experience who assists a new nurse in improving clinical skills and nursing judgment.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water.

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.
