Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Traditional Latino American families are male dominated with clear malefemale role distinctions and may impact the client's perception about whether or not striking his wife is physical abuse. The nurse should also recognize that cultural beliefs do no exempt one from adhering to state and federal laws with regard to assault and battery.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The nurse should identify that the Latin American woman's refusal to participate in an assertiveness training group may be influenced by the Latin American cultural definition of the female role. Latin Americans place a high value on the male-dominated family. The father usually possesses the ultimate authority.

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.
