Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The American Nurses Association (ANA) standards of professional performance require nurses to use research findings in practice. Two criteria are measured. The first criterion is that nurses need to use the best available evidence, which includes research findings, to guide their practice decisions (ANA, 2010). The second criterion is that nurses participate in research activities that are appropriate for their position and level of education. Activities may include identifying problems in the clinical setting that may be researched; participating in data collection; participating as a member of a research committee or a research program; sharing research findings the nurse has found with others; conducting research; critiquing research that may be used in practice; using research findings to develop policies, procedures, and standards for patient care at health care facilities; and incorporating research as part of ongoing learning as a nurse.

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.
