Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

Collaboration means a collegial working relationship with other healthcare providers to supply client care. Collaborative practice requires the discussion of diagnoses and management in the delivery of care. Case management involves one or more individuals overseeing the needs and requirements of a particular individual's health. Health promotion activities include disease prevention and healthy lifestyle interventions. Health education would be included in this particular situation, but collaboration is a more inclusive definition of what is occurring with these individuals and the care they require.
