Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Modern public health practices, such as isolation, disinfection, and ship quarantines, emerged in response to the bubonic plague. Care in a hospital was originally developed by the Romans. Chemical intervention and herbal remedies were not used to self-protect from the Black Death.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Under the Theory of Reasoned Action, it is assumed that all behavior is determined by intentions, which are determined by attitude toward the behavior and the norms associated with the behavior. That in turn is determined by whether or not important persons approve or disapprove of the behavior. The family's beliefs about health, support of the client, and communication patterns are irrelevant if the family does not approve of the changes that have been proposed.
