Answer to Question 1

A, C, F
An organization's culture of safety is the result of shared values and behaviors that demonstrate
agreement on the importance of safety, communications based on mutual trust, and confidence in the
ability to prevent errors through the use of known safety practices. History of service to the
community does not specifically relate to a culture of safety. Most mission statements do not
specifically focus on the staff. Both centralized and decentralized organization can have a culture of
safety.

Answer to Question 2

B
The Clinical Research Nurse is a relatively new emerging role that allows the nurse a unique
opportunity to offer novel treatment approaches to patients who may have otherwise reached a dead
end in their treatment course. The CRN coordinates the day to day management of a research trial,
though the primary research investigator still has ultimate responsibility for all study activities. The
CRN is employed by the health care site, which may be a hospital, university setting, private health
care practice, etc.

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.
