Answer to Question 1

A

Feedback
A Correct. Education cannot be effective unless the nurse understands the level of cognitive development of the student, child, or caregiver.
B Incorrect. Reading level does not generally affect the ability to verbally educate, and is not as critical in the process of learning.
C Incorrect. Grade level for the child will have a link to cognitive development, but cognitive development is more basic.
D Incorrect. IQ level must be taken into account, but the cognitive level of the child is more important.

Answer to Question 2

A
Insulin is left at room temperature to decrease the pain. The bottle is rolled gently to mix the insulin. Shaking produces air bubbles. Regular is always drawn up first. Air is injected into the NPH insulin first.

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.
