Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, B, D
Lillian Wald's contributions include establishing nursing schools, advocating for better housing, working to change child labor laws, teaching preventive practices, advocating occupational health nursing, and improving the education of public health nurses. Today's nurses can continue this work. Analyzing risks and benefits of care decisions as well as accessing and using emerging research evidence are important nursing actions for individual clients.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Community health nursing is the practice of nursing by professional nurses who have been educated in the processes of population-based nursing and whose principal client is the aggregate community. Community-based practice is the provision of skilled therapy services within a client's own home or community. Community psychology is the application of psychology to community programs.
