Answer to Question 1

D
Standard work uniforms or work clothes offer level D protection. There is no respiratory protection. Standard precautions are important to take when level D protection is used.
Level A protection provides maximum protection because it offers self-contained breathing apparatus, fully encloses the individual, and includes chemical-resistant boots and gloves. Level B protection provides respiratory protection but less skin protection. Used by trained responders, this PPE includes self-contained breathing apparatus, a hooded chemical-resistant suit, and face, boot, and glove protection. First responders (those emergency personnel first on the scene) and hospital personnel are trained and fitted to use level C protection. As with level A and B protection, level C protection presents danger to the user, primarily for dehydration and hyperthermia.

Answer to Question 2

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

HIPAA protects patients' private health information. This governs all areas of health information management, including, for example, reimbursement, coding, security, and patient records.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
