Answer to Question 1

A profile for typical sleep patterns includes spending more time in bed than in earlier
years, taking a long time to fall asleep, waking often, taking naps, and feeling
drowsy during the day. Ways that older adults could compensate for their changing
sleep patterns include avoiding naps, reducing time lying awake in bed,
compressing their nightly sleep time, and realizing that changing sleep patterns
occurs naturally with age.

Answer to Question 2

The four factors are technology, specialist care, personal determination, and
personal and/or cultural accommodation. Students should provide an example of
each.

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.
