Answer to Question 1

A
Implementation, the fourth step in the nursing process, involves performing the actions that have been planned to meet the client's goals and delegating tasks to personnel who are competent to perform the tasks.

Answer to Question 2

B
Euthanasia refers to the intentional act or lack of action that causes a merciful death of someone suffering from either a terminal illness or incurable condition.

Answer to Question 3

Nursing interventions (actions that assist the client to attain the results specified by the goals and expected outcomes) are then formulated. Nursing interventions can be independent (i.e., initiated by the nurse and not requiring an order from another health professional), interdependent (i.e., implemented collaboratively by the nurse and other health professionals), or dependent (i.e., requiring an order or prescription from a physician or other health care professional).

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.
