Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The nurse's instruction should be: when using Differin, wash your face and apply a thin film of gel to affected areas once a day.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) for children and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) for adults produce immunity against a variety of pneumococcal infections. Since Streptococcus pneumoniae is responsible for illnesses ranging from ear infections to meningitis, blood infections, and pneumonia, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend the polyvalent pneumococcal vaccines for all children and susceptible adults.
