Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, B
Nurses are involved in client education to promote wellness (primary prevention), prevent or diagnose illness early (secondary prevention), restore optimal health and function if illness has occurred (tertiary prevention), and assist clients and families to cope with alterations in health status. Simply being knowledgeable about the client's health status and care is not enough. Nurses must know the education and learning process and know how best to include the client's family in the process.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B, C, E
Ask Me 3 questions are: What is my main problem? What do I need to do? Why is it important for me to do this?
