Answer to Question 1

A
Many nursing programs administer an examination to students at the completion of their nursing program. New graduates who examine their feedback from such an examination have important information regarding their strengths and weaknesses that can help them focus their review for the NCLEX. Taking an exit exam will not help the students reduce their anxiety nor will it help the graduate get a new job.

Answer to Question 2

D
In 1974 Kramer identified reality shock. Reality shock is described as a conflict between the new graduate's expectations and the reality of the first nursing position. The honeymoon period, the resolution phase, and the recovery phase are not part of reality shock, but they are part of Kramer's description of the transitions new nurses pass through.

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.
