Answer to Question 1

Nurses interact closely with patients and thus are in an ideal position to identify people who would benefit from nutrition services. Nurses may screen patients for nutrition problems and participate in nutrition and dietary assessments. Nurses also provide direct nutrition care, such as encouraging patients to eat, finding solutions to food-related problems, monitoring food intakes, and answering questions about special diets. As members of nutrition support teams, nurses are responsible for administering tube and intravenous feedings. In facilities that do not employ registered dietitians, nurses often assume responsibility for much of the nutrition care. Examples of nutrition-related nursing diagnoses include constipation, disturbed body image, impaired oral mucous membranes, nausea, and risk for deficient fluid volume.

Answer to Question 2

B

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.
