Answer to Question 1

a

a. Correct: In shared governance, committees that include administrators and direct care nurses focus on decisions related to the standard of nursing practice, and this committee structure operates concurrently with the hierarchical hospital and nursing administration structures. However, the rapid time frame required for many decisions can mean that these decisions are made by administration rather than through committees, because shared governance involves a longer decision-making process.
b. Incorrect: Shared governance is not a hierarchical model of decision making.
c. Incorrect: Shared governance does not involve government influence in decision making.
d. Incorrect: In shared governance, decisions are made by committees, so this is not a major challenge. The challenge is that this type of decision-making process takes time, and may not work well when there are time constraints on decision making.

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

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.
