The answer to question 1

3
Basophils, eosinophils, and neutrophils are considered granulocytes which are present in increased amounts in the presence of an infection. Lymphocytes are common in the lymphatic system and work with acquired immunity.

The answer to question 2

1
Perhaps the most visible of all veteran's benefits is health care. The VA does provide benefits and support to over 100,000 homeless veterans each year; however, this number is substantially lower than the number of veterans who utilize health care benefits. The VA does not provide banking or retirement services.

The answer to question 3

4
Social isolation is a common concern for clients with this diagnosis. The client should be encouraged to join a support group. A support group will not help with fatigue, infection, or anxiety.

The answer to question 4

4
Red blood cells have a life span of about 120 days. Abnormal red blood cells have a shorter life span and are lysed and extracted from the circulation. The nurse should explain that since red blood cells live 120 days, the body needs a constant supply. The transfusion will provide the cells until the body makes new ones.

The answer to question 5

4
Assisted living facilities provide personal care services, 24-hour supervision, social activities, and health care services. Adult day care facilities provide health, social, and recreational services to adults who require supervision and care while their family members are otherwise engaged with work responsibilities. Long-term care is an extended assistance for the chronically ill, mentally ill, or disabled with a focus on assistance with carrying out basic activities of daily living that may be provided in private homes or public facilities. Hospice includes palliative and end-of-life care for clients and their families.
