Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Research on the stressors and rewards of rural practice, in particular public and community health nursing, is needed. Other priority areas of research include rural nursing practice, empirical data on the particular nursing needs of rural-client systems, international perspective on the health of rural populations, the use of technology and communication, and rural-urban disparities in health status.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D
Field sanitation, infectious diseases, maternal care, and oral/dental concerns are major health care needs for at-risk minority groups in rural America. Chronic diseases are a problem for all Ameri-cans, not just the at-risk minority groups in the rural areas.
