Answer to Question 1

Answer:3
Rationale:In this scenario,the mother has overdressed the infant. The nurse needs to gently inform the mother of this problem and to provide information to the mother on why it is a problem. Just making a statement on how warmly the child is dressed will not accomplish this goal or just telling the mother to only put one layer of clothing on the child does not provide a rationale for the mother to make a better decision the next time,so this statement also is not helpful to the mother.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:1
Rationale:
Several disease-prevention strategies are used during anticipatory guidance for the parents of newborns.Metabolic screening as part of the newborn screening tests,hearing screening,eye examinations,immunizations,prevention of secondhand-smoke exposure,SIDS risk reduction,formula safety,hand-washing, and minimizing the exposure to disease.

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.
