Answer to Question 1

1. I slept the whole night without coughing..

Rationale:
Clients with influenza are at risk for disturbed sleep patterns due to coughing, and that can delay improvement. The client who is sleeping at night has recovered and is getting appropriate sleep time. Outcomes for those with the flu do not usually include walking, going to work, or eating a healthy diet. These would be included in a wellness plan of care.

Answer to Question 2

3. The flu shot will need to be given again next year..

Rationale:
The flu shot is given once a year because the immunization is effective only for the current strain. Polio vaccine is artificially acquired active immunity. Breastfeeding provides the child with passive immunity for the first six months to a year. An immune serum provides short-term protection lasting a few months.
