Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
By age 14, the nurse should ensure that a transition plan is initiated and that the individualized education plan (IEP) reflects posthigh school plans. By age 17, the nurse should explore health care financing for young adults. The nurse should check the teen's eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) the month the child turns 18 . By age 21, the nurse should ensure that the young adult has registered with the Division of Developmental Disabilities for adult services if applicable.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
For Legg-Calv-Perthes disease, both parents and the child need thorough education about treatment and care because it can be difficult for young children to accept the extended treatment period involved with this disorder. There are long-term consequences if rest is not followed conscientiously. Parents may need assistance with devising appropriate activities for the child during the time that activity is limited and weight bearing is not allowed. Surgery with supporting rods is used to treat scoliosis. The child will not have passive range-of-motion exercises nor knee joint exercises in the treatment of this 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.
