Answer to Question 1

D
Rural areas tend to have high numbers of the very old and very young, and often the older population has chronic illnesses with which to contend. A program for this demographic would be very beneficial.
Rural areas tend to have large populations of older adults and the very young, not adolescents.
Rural areas tend to have large populations of older adults and the very young, not necessarily children of all ages.
Rural families are often slightly larger than city families, but the very old and very young are the largest segments of their populations.

Answer to Question 2

A
The nurse can use the patient's goals as motivating factors. Without good health, the patient probably won't be able to meet most goals.
Although teaching a patient how to assess his or her life goals does assist the nurse in getting to know the patient as a unique individual, it is what the nurse does with this knowledge (motivate the patient) that is important. This answer is too narrow in focus to be the best choice.
Increasing trust will help the nurse convince the patient that health-related changes are needed, but this answer is too narrow in focus to be the best answer.
Goals are not related to self-agency.
