Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. The nurse can utilize experience as a population nurse to become a frontline policy maker by seeking appointment to a board that can develop and enforce health policy. This is the role of politician. The citizen role is one of an informed voter. The activist role addresses a role that seeks a definite outcome. The researcher role seeks to identify health policy issues, not policy formation or regulation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: 2. Though this is a role of citizen, through speaking out on policy issues and becoming acquainted with elected officials, the nurse is displaying the role of activist. Contacting public officials and joining relevant coalitions is a political activist role.
