Feedback:
An efficient and effective homemade oral rehydration solution is to stir one level teaspoon of salt and eight level teaspoons of sugar into one quart or liter of clean drinking water or water that has been boiled and cooled.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Nurses and other healthcare providers should suspect listeriosis in high-risk clients with a recent history of eating delicatessen food, soft cheeses, or smoked seafood who become ill with diarrhea and/or flu-like symptoms. Other infectious organisms that commonly cause foodborne illnesses include noroviruses, Listeria monocytogenes, nontyphoid Salmonella, and E. coli O157:H7. Campylobacter is the most common cause of bacterial foodborne illness in the United States, and it is an important cause of diarrheal illness throughout the world regardless of people's age.
