Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
The clinical nurse specialist has advanced experience and expertise in a specialized area of practice such as gerontology, and would be best suited to provide education on palliative care. The nurse researcher is responsible for the continued development and refinement of nursing knowledge and practice through the investigation of nursing problems. The nurse educator generally has specific clinical specialties and advanced clinical experience in a particular area. The nurse administrator is responsible for managing client care. Nurse practitioners typically provide direct care more often than leading and educating staff.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
Sigma Theta Tau is the nursing honor society that extends membership invitations to students who demonstrate excellence in scholarship and nurses in the community who demonstrate excellence in leadership. The ANA is open to all licensed registered professional nurses. The AACN sets standards and publishes essential components of baccalaureate, master's and doctoral education in nursing. The NCSBN is responsible for NCLEX testing standards.

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.
