A nurse is working in a family practice office and a female college-age student is being seen for a pre-nursing college physical and immunizations. From her health history she has never been exposed to measles, mumps, or rubella, or received a vaccine. Her last tetanus immunization was 4 years ago when she had sutures to a cut finger and her mother remembers her having the tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis vaccines as a child. She has never been vaccinated or exposed to varicella , human papilloma virus (HPV), or hepatitis. According to the recommended immunizations for adults, which of the following immunizations would the nurse recommend the patient receive at this time?

1,2,3,4 -- MMR is recommended for those entering college. Hepatitis A and B are recommended for those in the healthcare field. HPV is recommended for females under age 26. Influenza, pneumococcal, and varicella are recommended for both college students and healthcare workers. Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis is incorrect since the patient had a tetanus immunization 4 years ago and the recommendation is for a booster every 10 years; the patient was vaccinated as a child.
