Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

The goal of Healthy People 2020 is to eliminate health disparities by improving access, quality, and care among identified vulnerable populations. While improving insurance coverage may improve access to care, this is not a stated goal. Improving prescription drug use and improving nurse-client relationships are not stated goals for Healthy People 2020.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2, 3, 4

Clinical manifestations of child abuse include abrasions to the mouth, lips, and genitalia; missing teeth; and inappropriate responses to pain. Dehydration and confusion are manifestations of elder abuse.
