Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: Lifestyle assessment focuses on the personal lifestyle and habits of the client as they affect health.
Rationale 2: A social support systems review takes into account the social context in which a person lives and works and is important in health promotion. This includes individuals, groups, and interpersonal relationships that provide comfort, assistance, encouragement, and information.
Rationale 3: A health beliefs review is a clarification of those beliefs that determine how a person maintains control of his or her own health status.
Rationale 4: Spiritual health is the ability to develop one's spiritual nature to its fullest potential, including the discovery of how to experience love, joy, peace, and fulfillment. An assessment of spiritual well-being is a part of evaluating the person's overall health.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale 1: The information given in the scenario does not indicate that the client is experiencing problems with low self-esteem.
Rationale 2: The information given in the scenario does not indicate that the client is experiencing problems with caregiver role strain.
Rationale 3: Wellness diagnoses describe the human responses to levels of wellness in an individual. In this situation, even though the client is young and single, she is making every effort to be well in her situation. Attending parenting classes, meeting with peers, and learning about nutrition all point to a person who has a positive outlook but requires teaching.
Rationale 4: The client is doing much more than just learning about nutrition. She is learning how to cope and be well in her life and the life of her child.
