Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Social justice refers to providing equitable care and social supports for the most disadvantaged members of society. Nurses can function as advocates for policy changes to improve social, eco-nomic, and environmental factors that predispose vulnerable populations to poor health.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D
Community-based care and interorganizational partnerships, outreach and case finding, and pro-vision of culturally and linguistically appropriate care are all trends to improve care among vul-nerable populations. Elimination of disparities is not a trend related to caring for vulnerable pop-ulations. Increased incidence of acute illness is not a trend of care provision for vulnerable popu-lations.
