Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Feedback:
The 2020 National Health Goals for toddlers focus on safety. The nurse can help the nation achieve these goals by educating parents about the importance of using car seats and childproofing the home against poisoning and lead poisoning. The National Health Goals do not address pets in the home. Foot stools for toilet training are not a safety concern.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
All 20 deciduous teeth are generally present by 2.5 to 3.0 years of age.
