Answer to Question 1

D
Economic factors are always a concern for families, especially for those at the lower end of the economic scale and single-income families. The family is the primary social context in which health promotion and disease prevention take place. Families, just like individuals, change and grow over time. Each developmental stage has challenges, needs, and resources.

Answer to Question 2

B
Functional nursing is a model of care that evolved in the 1940s and is task focused, not patient focused. In this model tasks are divided, with one nurse assuming responsibility for specific tasks.
