Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: Roy views nursing as involving the care and well-being of human persons

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: The diabetic client is at greatest risk for infection because diabetes lowers the client's immune response, as well as because of her age. As we age, immune response declines. The 24-year-old and the CEO of the bank would be at lowest risk, while the 6-year-old would be at greater risk because younger people have reduced immune response due to lack of exposure to allow development of antigens.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.
