Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Another way of thinking about ethnocentrism in nursing is that it can reflect an individual's, a group's, or an agency's cultural blindness. It can also reflect a lack of capacity to reach out effectively to minorities or culturally stigmatized groups.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Culture is a belief system that the members of the culture hold, to varying degrees, consciously or unconsciously, as absolute truth. That belief system guides everyday behavior and makes it routine.

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.
